Saudi Arabia Solar Photovoltaic Glass Market – Overview
Photovoltaic glass (PV glass) is a technology advancement that makes it possible to convert light into power. Transparent semiconductor-based photovoltaic cells, sometimes referred to as solar cells, are incorporated into the glass to convert sunlight into solar energy. PV Glass transforms buildings into vertical power producers by generating free and renewable electricity due to the sun. Additionally, it offers thermal and acoustic insulation, guaranteeing excellent filtration as up to 95% of infrared radiation and 99% of dangerous UV radiation may be absorbed. The three main PV cell technologies—monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, and thin film—control the global market.
Saudi Arabia Solar Photovoltaic Glass Market – By Installation
Based on installation, Saudi Arabia solar PV glass market is segmented into float glass technology and patterned glass technology. The pattern installation technology segment accounts for a higher share in the Saudi Arabia solar PV glass market. The market share of pattern installation techniques is larger. This type of installation technique provides controlled light directly into the cells, boosting the efficiency of these solar energy systems. They also provide enhanced optical and aesthetic performance. Due to their small size, they also provide a logistical benefit that reduces their total cost.
Impact of COVID-19 on Saudi Arabia Solar Photovoltaic Glass Market
The market for solar photovoltaic glass in Saudi Arabia experienced a substantial slowdown as a result of the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. Lockdowns and import-export restrictions imposed by a number of countries hindered the production of solar photovoltaic glass as well as the demand and supply for it. Due to a labor shortage, the infrastructure-related operations associated with the renewable energy sector were also briefly put on hold. During the initial outbreak, all these variables led to significant losses for the Saudi Arabian solar photovoltaic glass sector. Yet, the business experienced great development as energy consumption increased and sustainability consciousness spread in the years after COVID-19.
