Perhaps 5 years ago, here in Sweden. The efficiency has since increased drastically, and now you could power a hose with solar panels from March to October here with just solar panels.

When people realised what a good deal they are financially.
It is not in any particular year that these things became popular. It first became popular in the developed world and that too gradually once these things became more effective and started showing some financial gains. And once the govt started rolling out grants for green energy more people started lapping it up. Lot of DIY stuff has further reduced the costs which is making them popular.
