Solar Photovoltaic Wafer Market Analysis
The solar photovoltaic (PV) wafers market is expected to register a CAGR of more than 4% in the forecast period (2022–2027).
The market was negatively impacted by COVID-19 in 2020. Currently. The market has reached pre-pandemic levels.
- Over the long term, high durability and the ability to withstand high temperatures make photovoltaic wafers favorable for solar photovoltaic panels.
- On the other hand, photovoltaic wafers are costly compared to alternatives like thin films available in the market, which are expected to restrain growth in the forecast period.
- During the forecast period, however, the market is likely to grow a lot if new ways are found to improve several steps of the process of making silicon solar cells in order to lower costs and increase production capacities.
