The report “Bifacial Solar Market Size, Share,Trends, Industry Analysis Report: By Product Type (Framed Bifacial Module, Frameless Bifacial Module), By Panels Type, By Installation Type, By Technology, By End-User, and By Region, Segment Forecast, 2024 - 2032” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
The bifacial solar market has emerged as a promising sector within the renewable energy landscape, driven by innovative technology and increasing global energy demands. Unlike traditional solar panels, bifacial solar panels can generate electricity from both their front and rear sides, significantly enhancing energy production efficiency. This capability, combined with their frameless design and tempered glass covering for weather and UV resistance, makes them durable and adaptable to various environmental conditions.
The increasing installation and benefits of bifacial solar panels drive the growth of bifacial solar. These panels offer several advantages over traditional ones, including the ability to generate power from both sides, leading to higher energy output. They are frameless and feature tempered glass on both sides, ensuring weather resistance, UV protection, and durability against high temperatures and strong winds.
Market players are leveraging digitization and technological advancements to expand their production capacities with improved cost efficiency and streamlined operations. Many bifacial module manufacturers are exploring innovative developments beyond their current product lines.
For instance, in 2019, HOLLYWOOD GROUP built the major Mono 125MW N-type bifacial power station in Oman, Middle East, and released transparent solar back sheet 2.0 products.
Furthermore, bifacial solar panels are making significant inroads into both utility-scale and distributed solar markets. Initially, these panels were predominantly adopted in utility-scale projects, such as large solar farms, owing to their ability to generate higher power output. Moreover, government policies and incentives are pivotal in shaping the solar energy market, including the adoption of bifacial panels. Favorable regulations, tax incentives, and subsidies offered by different countries and regions can significantly boost the deployment of bifacial solar panels across various sectors. These supportive measures underscore the growing importance of bifacial technology in expanding the bifacial solar market demand.
