Thin Film Photovoltaics Market Applications, Capacity by Shares and Product Scope Forecast 2022

Global Thin Film Photovoltaics (PV) Market is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period owing to the speedy advancements in thin film technology. The most common types of PV cells used worldwide are thin film PV cells and crystalline silicon. Formerly, market was ruled by crystalline silicon PV cells. However, thin film has gained popularity in the recent past. Thin film PV primarily consists of copper-indium diselenide (CIS), amorphous silicon (a-Si), cadmium telluride (CdTe) and copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS).

Photovoltaics are also known as solar cells. They are electronic devices which directly converts sunlight into electricity. Thin film photovoltaics are made by putting one or more thin layers of photovoltaic (PV) material on a substrate such as plastic, metal or glass. Thickness of the film can range from few nanometers to micrometers. This is relatively thinner than its competitor’s crystalline silicon solar cells technology which uses wafers up to 200 micrometers. This permits thin film cells to be lower in weight, flexible and have less friction or drag. It can be used as a semi-transparent photovoltaic glazing material that can be plastic-coated on the windows.
