Market Dynamics

The Global Thin Film Photovoltaics (PV) market is expected to promise high growth owing to the increasing demand for Increasing use of solar power in recent years. Increasing demand from Applications including (Residential, Industrial, Commercial) is expected to drive the growth of the global thin-film photovoltaics (PV) market. This market has witnessed a number of key developments by major companies including Kyocera Corporation, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Kaneka Corporation, Sharp Corporation, Panasonic Corporation, ReneSola Co. Ltd., JA Solar Co. Ltd., Suntech Power Holdings Co. Ltd., and Yingli Green Trina Solar. with a focus on organic as well as inorganic growth strategies. Developing regions including the Asia Pacific and the Middle East have been among the high potential markets with high growth in some of the key economies.

Thin-film photovoltaics are an alternative to solar photovoltaics. These are more energy-efficient as they are coated with photosensitive chemicals that help capture sun rays and convert the solar light to electricity with the help of inverters. These PVs are highly energy-efficient and also cost-efficient too.

On the basis of the type, the market is bifurcated as organic and inorganic. The organic segment is the largest because of the photoactive layers that are composed of acceptor and donor semiconducting materials to generate currents. This makes the organic photovoltaics capture large amounts of sun rays and convert them into electricity.

Segment Analysis

Based on the Materials, the market is segmented as Copper, Aluminum, and Others.

By the basis of application, the thin-film PV market is divided as residential, industrial and commercial. The commercial sector is the most dominant among the applications, due to the various policies and provisions provided by the government.

The APAC region is the leading region for this market. Due to the growing population and the increasing disposable income, the demand for energy is ever-increasing in this region. The countries in South Asia such as China and India are countries which are rich in sunlight, thus the governing bodied are taking measure to ensure that this is being utilized. This, in turn, is driving the market for thin photovoltaic cells.
