INTRODUCTIONSTUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVESBCC Research’s goal in conducting this study was to determine the current status of the global market for photovoltaics (PV) and then to assess its growth potential over a six-year period from 2013 to 2019. Our last report, EGY014H, studied this industry in 2012 and we were particularly interested in the impact on the market of the surging global demand for energy, improvements in solar PV technology, declining costs of photovoltaics and the impact of climate change on renewable energy sources. We were also interested in the impact of incentives on solar sales and installations, as more countries reach grid parity. Our key objective was to present a comprehensive analysis of the current market for PV and its future direction. W : www.bharatbook.com , T : +91 22 27810772, 27810773, E : info@bharatbook.com
REASONS FOR DOING THIS STUDY PV technology dates back to the 1950s and the advent of the space program in the 1960s, but the concerted effort to develop this technology for industry and consumer use began during the oil embargoes of the 1970s. However, the eventual stabilization of oil prices had a dampening effect on investment, tax credits and government funding for research and development. Despites these challenges, the development of PV and its materials continued and, in the late 1990s, R&D funding, cost-shared programs and industry activity once again increased. The growth rate of this technology has been exceptionally high, reaching annual growth rates of 30% to 40% over the past decades until the 2012 step back. At the end of 2011, 2012 and until now, the economy of scale dramatically reduced module prices and reshaped the industry landscape through company consolidation.

In the first decade of the 21st century, companies in the PV business focused on reaching grid parity—the meeting of costs of fossil fuels and solar energy—as a way to broaden the scope of PV. Nations and individual states began to offer serious incentives such as tariffs and tax credits for solar customers. As more countries reach the turnkey of grid parity, we were interested in looking at this industry once again to chart its potential. INTENDED AUDIENCE In this PV study, we present current and emerging technologies, details of the industry structure (e.g., the leading players in equipment and materials) and analyze the competitive environment, major applications, current and future markets, growth factors and details of modules shipments for 2013, 2014 and 2019.

This study will be of interest to those who manufacture solar cells, modules, inverters, racking mounts, tracking systems, polysilicon and interconnection materials, as well as those involved in PV manufacturing equipment and materials such as silicon, steel, polymers and ceramics. It will also be of interest to those companies engaged in nanotechnology and materials for flexible substrates. In addition, utility companies, construction firms and those involved in the rural electrification programs will find its contents to be of value.

SCOPE OF REPORT The scope of this study encompasses the major PV technologies: monocrystalline silicon, multicrystalline silicon, thin films (e.g., amorphous silicon, cadmium telluride, copper indium gallium selenide), compound semiconductor materials (e.g., gallium arsenide) and emerging approaches such as nanostructured films, dye- sensitized solar cells and organic technologies. BCC Research analyzes each technology, examines its current and potential efficiency, assesses the current market status of each, examines its future market impact and presents shipments of PV modules and their values for 2013, 2014 and 2019. Various technical issues are discussed and a thorough economic analysis of each technology and its impact on future growth is presented.

In this report, we analyze the PV industry on a global basis, including manufacturing capacity and consumption by various regional markets. We examine government funding and support, industry involvement, standards, the environmental impact of solar energy and the impact of incentives to use PV. We also discuss the potential for applications—both grid-connected and stand-alone. Projections of module shipments by major applications are also presented for the five years covered in our study. Not covered in this report are subsectors that are unquestionably a part of solar power but do not use photovoltaics, such as concentrating solar thermal systems, solar water heaters and the like.
