Market Overview:
The global solar cell front side silver paste market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for solar energy across the globe. In addition, the growing awareness about the benefits of using solar energy is also contributing to the growth of this market. The global solar cell front side silver paste market can be segmented on the basis of type, application and region. On the basis of type, it can be divided into Silver Paste for N-type Monocrystalline Silicon, Silver Paste for P-type Monocrystalline Silicon and Silver Paste for Polycrystalline Silicon. On the basis of application, it can be classified into PERC Solar Cell, TOPCON Solar Cell and Others.
Product Definition:
Solar Cell Front Side Silver Paste is a layer of silver paste that is applied to the front side of a solar cell in order to improve its electrical performance. The paste helps to create a good contact between the solar cell and the electrode, improving the flow of electricity.
Silver Paste for N-type Monocrystalline Silicon:
N-type monocrystalline silicon is a special type of semiconductor material which has an ability to extract more electron volts from the electric field than regular crystalline silicon. It also has high thermal stability and can absorb sunlight better, hence it's used in solar cells. The main problem with this material is that it's very expensive compared to C-type crystalline silicon, so most of the time companies use a mixture of both types for their solar cell production.
Silver Paste for P-type Monocrystalline Silicon:
The solar cell front side silver paste is a thin film deposition process used to provide an anti-reflective coating on the front side of P-type monocrystalline silicon wafers. The paste consists of nanosilver particles which are coated with a layer of aluminum and then applied onto the surface. It is reported that this product can improve light absorption by more than 20% as compared to traditional technologies, however, there are no substantial data supporting this claim published yet.
Application Insights:
The others application segment includes CIGS solar cell, CdTe solar cell and CIS Solar Cell. The product is used for front side silver paste in PERC solar cells, TOPCON solar cells and CIS cells. The others segment accounted for a market share of 18.3% in 2017 owing to the increasing demand from emerging economies such as China, India and Brazil over the past few years.
The product usage in N-type monocrystalline silicon (n-Si) based PERC was observed to be more effective when compared with its usage at other positions on the module or rear side of n-Si based modules due to high incident sunlight absorption by n-type monocrystalline silicon substrate which results into higher power generation capacity of around 15%.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market with a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030. The region has witnessed an increasing number of solar installations owing to growing awareness regarding renewable energy in countries, such as China and India. In addition, favorable government policies and subsidies are anticipated to drive the demand for solar cells in this region. For instance, under the National Solar Mission (NSM) scheme implemented by the Indian Government in 2010s; installation of up to 1 GW capacity through private investments was offered tax benefits over 15 years while NSM itself had committed funding worth USD X million for research & development activities related with solar cells.
North America accounted for more than 25% share of global revenue in 2017 on account of high penetration rates observed across U.S., which is one among top five producers globally along with China, Germany, South Africa and Japan based on 2016 data published by International Energy Agency (IEA).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for solar energy due to global warming and rising electricity costs
- Government initiatives and subsidies for solar energy installations
- Reduction in the cost of solar cells and modules
- Increased awareness about the benefits of solar energy among consumers and businesses
- Technological advances that improve the efficiency of solar cells
