(MENAFN- EIN Presswire)
WILMINGTON, DE , UNITED STATES, June 24, 2024 /EINPresswire / -- The thin-film solar cell market size was valued at $11.3 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $25.3 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.4% from 2021 to 2030.
Avail sample report with industry Insights:
A thin-film solar cell is a second-generation solar cell that is 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).
Thin-film solar cells are cost-effective and is an efficient way to transform sunlight into electricity. These films own the property of bandgap and requires 10 times lesser quantity of material to absorb light as compared to silicon. Thin-films are easier to work with and utilize low cost substrate that make them relatively cheaper compared to silicon. Moreover, several research activities resulted into the increased efficiency of thin-film solar cell, which beat multi-crystalline silicon cells.
Make an Inquiry:
The factors that drive the market growth are increase in awareness toward green energy, rise in energy consumption across the globe, growth in installation flexibility, and cost & performance efficiency of thin-film solar cell. However, high initial manufacturing cost and technological complexity associated with the use of thin-film solar cells hamper the market growth. Conversely, rise in environmental concerns and increase in research activities in the field of thin-film solar cells provide a substantial growth opportunities to market.
