The global CdTe Thin Film Solar Cell market size is predicted to grow from US$ 6119 million in 2025 to US$ 12720 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.0% from 2025 to 2031.
Thin film solar cells refer to the fact that these types of solar cells use a much thinner level of photovoltaic material than mono-crystalline or multi-crystalline solar cells. The thin-film solar cells are made by depositing one or more thin layers, or thin film (TF) of photovoltaic material on a substrate, such as glass, plastic or metal. Thin-film solar cells are commercially used in several technologies, including cadmium telluride (CdTe), copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS), and amorphous thin-film silicon (a-Si, TF-Si)
The global CdTe thin-film Solar cell industry is dominated by First Solar, Calyxo, Antec Solar Energy AG, LucInTech and ASP, among others, with First Solar leading the industry with a 95% market share.
