COVID-19 Impact on the Global Photovoltaic Market
The photovoltaic market is expected to decline in 2020, mainly due to the impact of COVID-19. Governments of several major economies have enforced lockdowns to curb the spread of COVID-19. With lockdown in place, manufacturing activities have been affected significantly. For instance, in January 2020, the Chinese government announced a lockdown of more than 30 days to tackle COVID-19. As the majority of the PV modules are manufactured in China, the production and supply chain has taken a significant hit. For instance, India imports ~80% of its solar value chain supplies from China. The lockdown had drastically affected the manufacturing capacity of China, as all major ship container companies had also stopped functioning out of Chinese ports and transporting goods from China to other countries. This resulted in supply chain disruptions in March and April 2020. Also, lockdown implemented in other countries caused supply chain disruptions and labor shortages in the PV industry. Companies were not able to source the required labor for their operations due to travel restrictions. Though the market is expected to be impacted in 2020, recovery is expected to commence in 2021, with full recovery by 2022.
Photovoltaic Market Dynamics
Driver: Supportive government policies and initiatives
Governments in various regions are constantly working towards formulating policies to provide photovoltaic projects with grid connection convenience. Countries such as China, Canada, the US, and France are aggressively promoting the use of solar energy. For instance, the Government of Canada launched the Climate Action Incentive Fund (CAIF) in July 2019, a C$150 million (~USD 111 million) incentive program to help fight climate change. Under this program, businesses planning to build renewable energy projects, including solar, are eligible to receive up to 25% of project-related costs, with funding ranging from C$20,000 (~USD 14,672) to C$250,000 (~USD 183,400). Such initiatives and supportive government policies are expected to propel the PV market growth during the forecast period.
Restraint: Lack of skilled workforce for PV installation and maintenance
Photovoltaic installation requires a spectrum of skilled workers, ranging from Ph.D. level scholars in R&D to technicians requiring specialized training and certification to a wide variety of other professionals for supporting all aspects of the PV industry. The industry does not have enough trained installers to handle the implementation of this technology. The availability of appropriately skilled manpower has been one of the most prominent challenges in the PV arena. On the other hand, end-users of the technology demand acknowledged standards, quality assurance, and skills certification during the entire development phase of a PV installation.
Opportunity: Technological advancements in solar cell manufacturing
The solar industry has witnessed various fast-paced technological developments in the past few years. Perovskite is the newest solar material whose crystal structure is good for solar absorption. Perovskite cells also work better than silicon at lower lighting intensities, on cloudy days or for indoors, thus enabling higher conversion efficiency. The main benefit of making solar cells from perovskite is that the material is cheap and abundant and could produce low-cost solar power. Perovskite solar cells can also be produced in very thin layer architectures with high degrees of transparency, which lends them to a variety of novel applications, including building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) projects and flexible panel designs.
Challenge: Lack of operational land
Solar or PV systems for utilities applications require large areas of land. Some estimates show that the land requirements for utility-scale PV systems are in the range of 5 acres per megawatt (depending upon the technology and availability of sunlight), which indicates a hike in the requirement for serviceable land in the coming years. This might evoke concerns regarding land degradation and habitat loss in some locations. Unlike wind power, there is a minimal possibility for solar projects to share land for agricultural uses. Acquisition of operational land is a major challenge, especially in developing countries like India and Chinamajor markets for PV.
Inverters expected to witness the highest market growth during the forecast period
The market for inverters is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of the PV inverters market can be attributed to their increasing adoption in residential and utilities applications. Solar inverters are used to convert DC power into AC power, which is then used for domestic utilization. In the last few years, inverter technologies have significantly advanced such that in addition to converting DC to AC, they offer a number of other capabilities and services to ensure that the inverter can operate at an optimal performance level. This includes controlling and monitoring the entire system. With the increasing adoption of rooftop solar systems across the world, the demand for inverters is also rising, which, in turn, is expected to drive the inverters market.
Residential application is expected to witness the largest market growth during the forecast period
The market for the residential application is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the declining cost of PV systems in the past few years. In residential applications, PV systems are installed on the rooftop or where adequate sunlight is available to fulfill the home electricity needs. Governments across various countries such as India, China, and the US offer incentives and tax rebate to residential users to install PV systems, which is expected to fuel the growth of the market for PV systems in residential applications during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is the leading photovoltaic market, globally, by value, in 2019
APAC is projected to lead the PV market from 2020 to 2025. The market growth can be attributed to the presence of key players such as JinkoSolar (China), JA Solar (China), Trina Solar (China), and LONGi (China) in APAC. The growing adoption of PV modules in countries such as China, Japan, and India is fueling the growth of the market. These countries are among the top 5 players in the photovoltaic market in APAC with a cumulative installed photovoltaic capacity of ~300 GW as of 2019. Moreover, the region is the largest producer and consumer of PV modules and related PV components. Various initiatives and favorable policies launched by governments of different countries in APAC to promote the use of solar energy are expected to propel the demand for PV systems in the region during the forecast period.
