“Thin Film Solar PV Manufacturing Equipment Worldwide” Now Available at MarketPublishers.com
13 Jul 2011 • by Natalie Aster
LONDON – Out of the over 38.2 gigawatts of production capacity added to the global solar photovoltaic manufacturing industry during the past five years, nearly 20% or 7.5 GW of the capacity was for the production of thin film solar photovoltaic technologies. Thin film PV technologies are produced through deposition processes and production line equipment distinct from conventional, market leading crystalline silicon solar PV technologies.
Supported by persistent industry interest in the production advantages and design flexibility of thin film PV technologies, thin film solar PV manufacturing equipment will continue to represent a diverse range of high-growth capital equipment markets. The total market is projected to reach approximately $4.3 billion in 2015 and $15.7 billion in 2020 on the basis of continuing advances in TFPV manufacturing and improved cost-competitiveness with c-Si PV production.
New market research report “Thin Film Solar PV Manufacturing Equipment Worldwide” elaborated by SBI offers a deep insight into the industry and features thin film pv manufacturing technologies and equipment, market trends and development factors, equipment manufacturer profiles, analyses of various markets for thin film pv manufacturing equipment.
