  1. Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Supply Chain - Global Market Size and Company Analysis of Polysilicon, Wafers, PV Cells and Solar PV Modules to 2015

  2. Global Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Market - Will Continue its Growth Momentum From an emerging fuel source 20 years ago, the availability of more effective and reliable equipment and machinery has enabled solar PV to be transformed into a commercial energy generating technology, in over forty countries. The global solar PV market is expanding rapidly, with PV installations growing by 57% in 2010 over 2009. Global solar PV installed capacity increased at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 40.1% from 1,761 MW (megawatts) in 2001 to 36,712 MW in 2010, of which 13.3 GW is expected to be added in 2010. The global solar PV market witnessed high growth in 2008 and 2009 with 13,671 MW of installed capacity coming online in these two years as compared to only 2,441 MW installed in 2007. The cumulative installed solar PV capacity has more than doubled since 2007. Installed capacity increased from 9,656 MW in 2007 to 23,327 MW in 2009. The growth momentum will continue in 2010 with the revival of the economy. It is expected that 13,385 MW of new capacity will be added in 2010. Europe is the leading solar PV market globally, with a share of 71% of the total cumulative installed capacity, followed by the Asia-Pacific region, accounting for a share of 14.9% in 2010.

  3. Global Silicon Market Revenues to Reach to an Estimated $7.89 billion by 2015 The global silicon industry has continued to grow rapidly, with solar being the major application area. The US and China are the major producers of silicon in the world, accounting for over 50% of the total production capacity in 2009-2010. The global silicon production capacity has been increasing year by year, from 32,500 metric tons (MT) in 2004 to 232,697 MT in 2010 at a CAGR of 38%.

However, the financial crisis in 2009 had a negative impact on the demand for silicon as investment flow into the PV industry was affected. The stimulus packages and other government support programs continued to show positive results and the markets recovered from the second quarter of 2010. The silicon industry’s market revenues will increase from an estimated $6.29 billion in 2010 to $7.89 billion by 2015, at a CAGR of

  4. 4.9%. The revenue growth rate fell from 24% CAGR in the historical period (2004-2010) as there was a significant fall in prices due to high supply and low demand. It is expected that the polysilicon market will stabilize over the forecast period (2010-2015) with lower prices of silicon feedstock. PV Wafer Production to Reach 29,000 MW by 2015 at a CAGR of 10.9% The demand for PV wafers continued to increase driven by rapid growth in PV installations during 2001-2010. The global wafers industry caters to both solar and semiconductor industry. China is the largest PV wafers market with the country hosting 50% of the global production capacity. The global solar PV wafers production capacity has been increasing year by year, from 1,900 MW in 2004 to 23,079 MW in 2010 at a CAGR of 51.6% and the production of wafers increased at 51% during 2004-10 to reach 17,309 MW in 2010. There will be decline in the capacity expansion of wafers due to considerable supply which can meet the market demand. Shift towards thin-film technology will also reduce the utilization of wafers in PV. The production of wafers will increase from 17,309 MW in 2010 to reach 29,000 MW by the end of 2015 at a CAGR of 10.9%.

  5. China - The Leading Manufacturing Hub For PV Components China has become a global manufacturing hub for PV components. The country is the largest silicon producer and accounted for around 31% of the global production capacity of silicon in 2009 and 2010. LDK Solar and GCL Poly are the major polysicon producers in China with a production capacity of 11,000 MT and 21,000 MT respectively. In PV wafers market, China accounts for a share of 50% of the global production capacity in 2010. China hosts five of the top ten wafer manufacturers in the world. LDK Solar, GCL Solar, ReneSola, Yingli Green and Trina Solar are the major wafer producers in China with a production capacity of 6,190 MW and 11,546 MW in 2009 and 2010 respectively.

JA solar, Suntech, Yingli Green and Trina Solar are some of the major cell manufacturers in China. The entry of major PV companies such as, ReneSola and LDK in the

  6. cell market in 2009, helped China in maintaining its leading position. China is followed by Taiwan, whose share of 15.4% in 2009 reduced to 12.9% in 2010. The country also had the largest production base for modules with a share of 39.5% in 2010. Suntech, Yingli Green, Solarfun, JA solar, LDK Solar and Trina Solar are some of the major module manufacturers in China. China continued its dominance in global PV manufacturing with many companies such as LDK, China Sunergy, ReneSola and CSG Holding entering the modules market in 2009-2010. European PV Inverter Manufacturers Dominate the Global PV Inverters Market The global solar PV inverter market revenues increased from an estimated $1.2 billion in 2004 to reach $6.49 billion in 2010 at a CAGR of 32.5%. European PV inverter manufacturers dominate the global PV inverters market. Italy based SMA Solar Technology is the largest PV inverter manufacturer in the world with a production share of 40% in 2009 and 38.5% in 2010. SMA is followed by Siemens which has a share of 8.1% in 2010 (7% in 2009), Fronius with 7.2% (7.8% in 2009), Schneider with 7.2% (6.2% in 2009), Kaco New Energy with 6.7% (8.1% in 2009), and Sputnik with 4.5% (4.7% in 2009). Eight inverter manufacturers of the top ten in the world are based in Europe and only two companies of the top ten namely, Power-One and Kaco New Energy are from rest of the world.

  7. Solar PV Equipment Supply to Exceed Demand in the Forecast Period The demand supply scenario of PV equipment has changed in the past 10 years. In the historical period of 2006 - 2008, the PV equipment industry was a “sellers market” with demand exceeding its supply due to the shortage of polysilicon. The demand-supply gap minimized as more companies entered the polysilicon market and major manufacturers such as, Hemlock, GCL-Poly, OCL Co. and Wacker Chemie enhancing their production capacities to meet the demand as well as increase their profitability with increasing polysilicon prices. In the forecast period of 2010-2015, there will be a shift in trend with supply exceeding demand resulting in further reduction in prices of PV equipment.
