Market Competitive Analysis
The solar encapsulation market is fragmented, and the degree of fragmentation will remain the same during the forecast period. With the growing demand for renewable energy, vendors in the market are making significant investments to expand their production capacities. 3M Co., Arkema Group, and E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Co. are some of the major market participants. However, the availability of alternative energy sources will challenge the growth of the market participants. To make the most of the opportunities, market vendors should focus more on the growth prospects in the fast-growing segments, while maintaining their positions in the slow-growing segments.
The report provides information on the production, sustainability, and prospects of several companies, including:
- 3M Co.
- Arkema Group
- E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Co.
- HANGZHOU FIRST APPLIED MATERIAL Co. Ltd.

Solar Encapsulation Market: Key Drivers and Trends
The growing popularity of solar energy has increased the installation of solar power plants across the world. The improvements in energy storage systems have narrowed the gap between solar power generation and supply during non-productive hours. The introduction of various initiatives and subsidies by governments and competitive bidding processes have increased the number of solar PV installations across the world. These factors have also significantly reduced solar generation costs. This coupled with the growing demand for clean and sustainable energy, the demand for solar PV panels is expected to increase during the forecast period. This will subsequently drive the global solar encapsulation market growth.
- Solar encapsulation market trends such as the increasing adoption of polyolefin encapsulants will also influence market growth.
- PO encapsulants are emerging as top substitutes for EVA encapsulants in the market.
- The use of polyolefin (PO) encapsulants have increased because of the various advantages such as improved thermo-mechanical properties, chemical inertness to prevent corrosion caused by gas and acid, and better volume resistivity to mitigate leakages from insulating materials.
- PO encapsulants also help in reducing the damage caused by UV rays.
- As a result of these factors, the market will register a CAGR of about 10% during 2019-2023.
