Global Thin Film Solar Cell Market Growth 2024-2030


According to our LPI (LP Information) latest study, the global Thin Film Solar Cell market size was valued at US$ 9774 million in 2023. With growing demand in downstream market, the Thin Film Solar Cell is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 27760 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 16.1% during review period.

The research report highlights the growth potential of the global Thin Film Solar Cell market. Thin Film Solar Cell are expected to show stable growth in the future market. However, product differentiation, reducing costs, and supply chain optimization remain crucial for the widespread adoption of Thin Film Solar Cell. Market players need to invest in research and development, forge strategic partnerships, and align their offerings with evolving consumer preferences to capitalize on the immense opportunities presented by the Thin Film Solar Cell market.

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)

It is expected that global demand for photovoltaic products will remain high in the next few years. According to our PV & Solar Research Center, by the end of 2022, the global cumulative installed photovoltaic power generation capacity is about 1180 GW. According to the data of China Photovoltaic Industry Association, the global newly installed photovoltaic capacity in 2022 is about 230 GW, and this number in 2023 is predicted to be 280-330 GW. According to the data of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the total output value of China's photovoltaic industry exceeded 1.4 trillion yuan in 2022. From the perspective of production value, mainland China is still the global center of the PV industry. According to the International Energy Agency, China market share in all key products of the supply chain have exceeded 80%. Among them, the production capacity of silicon wafers, solar cells, and components accounts for as high as 98%, 85% and 77%, respectively. According to the data released by the European Photovoltaic Association, 27 EU countries gained a new PV installed capacity of 41.4 GW in 2022. According to the report of the US Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), the US held a new PV installed capacity of less than 19 GW in 2022. But it is estimated that from 2023, the average annual growth rate of new photovoltaic installed capacity will exceed 21%. In terms of Japan, based on data from Fitch and the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), in 2022, Japan's newly installed photovoltaic capacity was 3.243 GW.
