Product Definition:
A solar module is a device that converts sunlight into electrical energy. It is made up of one or more solar cells, which are connected together to form a panel. Solar modules are used to power everything from small electronics devices to entire homes and businesses.
Single Crystal Silicon:
Single crystal silicon is the purest form of silicon and has a composition similar to that of sand. It was first produced in 1940 by the Siemens AG company, which also developed solar technology at the same time.
Polycrystalline Silicon:
Polycrystalline Silicon is a type of high purity silicon that has been processed to remove impurities and enhance the overall efficiency of solar modules. It possesses superior properties such as high stability, enhanced performance under adverse weather conditions, and low manufacturing cost which makes it suitable for use in photovoltaic applications.
Application Insights:
The others application segment includes industrial, HVAC, and transportation. The demand for Semiconductors is witnessing a paradigm shift due to the growing need for energy efficiency in various end-use sectors. Growing urbanization along with rising living standards in emerging economies such as China, India and Brazil is expected to drive the global solar module market over the forecast period.
Solar modules are used in numerous applications including residential, commercial and ground stations among others. Increasing government support towards renewable sources of energy has driven the demand for photovoltaic cells which are used as an alternative source of power generation resulting in increased installations of solar modules across multiple applications globally.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific regional market accounted for the largest share of over 40% in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its lead throughout the forecast period owing to increasing demand from residential and commercial applications. China, Japan, South Korea, India and Australia are some of the major solar PV module manufacturing hubs in Asia Pacific.
The European regional market is anticipated to witness a CAGR exceeding 10% from 2018 to 2030 due to stringent government policies regarding climate change and growing renewable energy capacity across countries such as Germany, Italy and Spain among others. Moreover, rising awareness about clean energy solutions among consumers will drive industry growth over the next eight years.
North America occupied a significant share in 2017 owing both polycrystalline silicon (PCS) modules as well as single-crystal silicon (S-Si) ones on account of their increased efficiency compared with amorphous Silicon Module (ISM). However; U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for electricity due to population growth and industrialization in developing countries
- Government policies and regulations supporting the use of solar energy
- Reduction in cost of solar modules
- Rising awareness about the benefits of solar energy among consumers and businesses
