The PV materials industry is a rapidly growing sector, driven by the increasing demand for renewable energy sources and the declining cost of solar energy systems. This industrial overview will provide a closer look at the PV materials industry, including its key players, manufacturing processes, and current trends.

The PV materials industry is primarily composed of manufacturers that produce the components necessary for solar energy systems. These components include solar cells, which are made from silicon or other materials and convert sunlight into electricity, and modules or panels, which are made up of multiple solar cells and used to capture and convert sunlight into electricity. Other components of solar energy systems include inverters, which convert direct current (DC) electricity produced by the solar panels into alternating current (AC) electricity that can be used by homes and businesses, and mounting and racking systems, which hold the solar panels in place.

The manufacturing process for PV materials involves several steps, including the production of silicon wafers, the fabrication of solar cells, and the assembly of modules. Silicon wafers are produced from raw silicon using a process known as the Czochralski method, which involves melting the silicon and then slowly cooling it to form a large single crystal. The wafers are then cut into thin slices and polished to a high degree of smoothness. The solar cells are then fabricated by depositing layers of material onto the silicon wafer, which form a junction between the positive and negative charges. The cells are then assembled into modules, which are typically framed and covered with glass or other materials to protect them from the environment.

Global Photovoltaic Materials Market Report Highlights

  • In the coming years, it is anticipated that the segment of the solar market known as Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) will experience the most rapid expansion. Thin-film CIGS solar cells have a number of advantages over conventional silicon-based solar cells. The high efficiency of CIGS solar cells—up to 22% for laboratory cells and 17% for commercial cells—is one of their primary benefits.
  • The solar module materials market's encapsulants sector currently holds the largest market share. Encapsulants are necessary components of solar modules because they shield the solar cells from moisture, UV radiation, and physical damage, all of which have the potential to degrade the cells' performance over time.
  • In the coming years, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to see significant growth in the demand for photovoltaic materials. This is because of a number of things, such as the region's low labor and material costs, government initiatives to encourage the use of renewable energy, and the rising demand for solar energy.
  • The global players include DuPont, Targray Technology International, Inc, Shin-Etsu Chemicals Co., Ltd., Mitsubishi Material Corporation, Hemlock Semiconductor Corporation LLC, Atecom Technology Co., Ltd., American Elements, Ferrotec Corporation, Topray Solar,Hangzhou First Applied Material Co. Ltd., 1366 Technologies Inc., NovoPolymers NV.
