The market relies heavily on materials like chloroethene, a key component in the production of PVC (Polyvinyl chloride), a material widely used in PVC pipes for the building and construction sectors. It's also crucial for the healthcare, electrical, and agriculture sectors. The production of PVC involves petrochemicals such as ethane and acetylene, with carbon dioxide often being a byproduct. The industry also uses copolymers and ethylene obtained through the thermal cracking of ethylene dichloride. However, there are environmental concerns, leading to research into bio-based vinyl chloride monomer and other alternatives. Regulations and trade play significant roles in shaping this market's dynamics, influencing factors such as raw material supply and product approvals. The market continues to grow, driven by factors like bioenergy and a diverse energy mix. Optimization and standardized product methods enhance power production, ensuring efficiency and reliability. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2023 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The increasing new installations and aging asset base of solar PV modules are notably driving the market growth. One of the advantages is their ability to be manufactured in large-scale plants, which allows manufacturers to reap economies of scale; moreover, as they involve modular technology, they can be deployed in small quantities as well. This is supported by research and development efforts, environmental concerns, availability of substitutes, raw material considerations, government regulations, trade regulations, import-export analysis, emerging revenue pockets, and strategic market considerations.
As a result, PV systems can be used on a very small scale, such as in solar-powered calculators or watches. Or they can be very large, such as in utility-scale power plants. As a clean energy-generating resource, these systems have witnessed significant adoption over the last decade and will continue to exhibit strong growth in the coming years as well. Additionally, the growth of renewable electricity capacity is expected to be led by solar PV as the technology is expected to reach almost 650 GW in installed capacity over the next five years. The installation of new modules requires both installation and consulting services, which significantly contribute to the growth of the market.
Developments related to solar PV modules is the key trend in the market. The next generation of these modules includes mono PERC and bifacial solar PV modules, which offer higher efficiency and conversion rates. Bifacial modules can generate power from both sides of the module, which results in higher power generation than monofacial modules. These modules require a smaller array footprint, which leads to a reduction in the balance of system (BOS) costs. Additionally, these are installed on highly reflective surfaces to utilize both sides of the modules and can lead to power output enhancements of about one-third. Bifacial solar PV modules are more durable than monoracial modules as both sides are UV-resistant and also have lower potential-induced degradation (PID) issues when the module is frameless.
Other than bifacial modules, research and innovations are also taking place in several other components of PV modules to increase their efficiency. Advanced PERC technology is one such technology that is expected to increase efficiency and enable faster returns on investment (ROI), thus leading to reductions in the cost of these systems. The growing adoption of mono PERC and bifacial modules, as well as half-cut cell modules, is expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Challenges associated with recycling scrap from solar PV systems are the major challenges impeding the market growth. Solar PV scrap is growing rapidly, considering the number of these modules that have been installed in the last two decades. The amount of discarded scrap from these systems is expected to grow. The disposal of scrap from discarded solar PV systems in landfills is considered unsafe, especially if the module is broken up, as the toxic materials can contaminate the soil and water, thus making its disposal a major issue.
Moreover, toxic materials such as cadmium can also be washed out of damaged modules and pollute the surrounding environment. The burden of putting the cost of long-term storage or recycling of old or damaged modules could lead to manufacturers facing further financial failure as they continue to focus on reducing the cost of these systems. This is hampering the growth of the market during the forecast period.
