Insights Presented in the Report

“Amongst Technology, Drillship category to witness higher CAGR during the forecast period.”

Based on Technology the market is divided into Thin Film, Multi-Crystalline Silicon, and Mono-Crystalline silicon based. The monocrystalline segment dominated the market in 2022 and is expected to show the same fashion in the forecast period. The shift to more efficient monocrystalline solar PV accelerated in 2021, with the technology capturing almost all crystalline PV production. Monocrystalline panels are relatively more energy efficient and heat resistant, but at the same time, they are more expensive and leave a high carbon footprint while manufacturing. On the other hand, Mult-crystalline panels are more affordable but offer lower energy efficiency. Monocrystalline solar panels are prepared from a single, high-priority silicon crystal. These panels have gained significant popularity recently as they offer higher efficiency, heat resistance, and power production. Further, these panels have a longer life cycle and usually last longer than their expiry. These panels offer the highest photoelectric conversion efficiency of about 18–24%, thus making it a compelling choice for commercial, residential, and industrial installations. All the metal parts, 85% of solar wafers, and 95% of the glass used in the monocrystalline solar panels are recyclable. The demand for monocrystalline solar panel recycling will capture the largest market share, as these panels have been widely used across the globe and have had large adoptions in the past years.

For Instance, ReProSolar, in partnership with ROSI, won €4.8 million from the EU to establish a pilot recycling plant that can process 5,000 tons of panels per year by 2023. ROSI uses a chemical process for recycling crystalline silicon in Europe.

“Amongst End-User, utility-scale segment to hold a significant share in the market in 2022.”

Based on End-User, the market is bifurcated into Residential and Commercial & Utility-scale. is divided into Residential, Commercial & Industrial, and Utility-scale segments. The Utility-scale segment acquired a majority share in the Solar encapsulation market and is expected to showcase a substantial growth rate during the forecast period. Utility-scale PV remains the most competitive source of PV generation globally; however, building large-scale installations is becoming increasingly challenging in many regions of the world due to the lack of suitable sites. Moreover, Solar PV is the main choice for the private sector if they want to invest in renewable energy.

“Amongst Material, Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) segment to hold a significant share in the market in 2022.”

Based on Material, the market is bifurcated into Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA), Non-Ethylene Vinyl Acetate, UV Curable Resin, and others. The Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) segment holds a significant market share in 2022 and is expected to showcase the same trend in the forecast period. This is majorly due to the early adoption and excellent protection properties even in the harsh environments of the material. However, with the prevalence of new materials, the segment market share is expected to decrease in the forecast period. The Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) segment is dominant in the global solar encapsulation market, driving its widespread adoption. EVA encapsulants have been the industry standard for decades, offering a range of advantages that make them an attractive choice for solar module manufacturers. EVA encapsulants provide excellent optical transparency, allowing maximum light transmission to the solar cells and thereby enhancing energy generation efficiency. Additionally, they offer superior adhesion properties, ensuring a secure bond between the solar cells and the module components and preventing delamination and moisture ingress.

“Asia Pacific to hold a considerable share in the market.”

APAC registered the highest market share in the Solar Encapsulation and is expected to witness an influential CAGR in the forecasted period. It is mainly owing to many Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Cell projects taking place in China, India, Australia, and Japan. Moreover, favorable government policies, regulations, and investments in achieving renewable energy targets set by various countries are driving the market.

For instance: In Australia, the Australian government will provide AUD 14 million to support 5B’s AUD 33.4 million strategic technology innovation project through the Australian Renewable Energy Agency; In Japan, the Japanese government allocated 8 billion yen in the 2021 national budget to support the introduction of independent solar power generation equipment and storage batteries including electric vehicles through on-site PPA; and in India, the Government of India announced an additional capital infusion of Rs. 10 billion to the Solar Energy Corporation of India and Rs.15 billion to the Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency.
