High Concentration Photovoltaics Market Snapshot (2023 to 2033)

The global high-concentration photovoltaics market is anticipated to be valued at USD 3,141.9 million in 2023, with a forecasted CAGR of 11.6% from 2023 to 2033, and is estimated to reach USD 9,443.4 million in 2033. Growth is attributed to the increasing demand for solar power generation. From 2018 to 2022 a CAGR of 9.5% was registered for the high-concentration photovoltaics market.

The CPV (Concentrated Photovoltaics) technology is used to generate electricity by using lenses or curved mirrors to gather huge amounts of sunlight on a small area with highly proficient Multi-Junction (MJ) solar cells.

HCPV (High Concentration Photovoltaics - a type of CPV technology) systems occupy concentrating optics which include Fresnel lenses or dish reflectors that concentrate sunlight to intensify it, equal to that of 1,000 suns or more. HCPV solar technology is the process through which maximum sun energy is converted into electricity.

HCPV can reduce the expenses of solar cells. Globally, the high-concentration photovoltaics market is growing due to high efficiency and an upsurge in yearly installed capacity (i.e., from 300 up to 1000 suns).

The installations of HCPV systems are expected to grow by a double-digit percentage every year. Further, high-concentration photovoltaics are mostly used in industrial, telecom, or mobile towers, rural electrification, and government or military sectors.

The high-concentration photovoltaics market is projected to expand at a healthy CAGR during the forecast period due to the:

  • Its eco-friendly nature.
  • Uninterrupted power supply.
  • High efficiencies for direct-normal irradiance.
  • Simple & user-friendly integration.
  • Rapid deployment solutions.
  • Increased and stable energy production.

Prominent Drivers Spearheading High Concentration Photovoltaics Market Growth

The Rising Adoption and Advancement of Renewable Energy Sources Boost the Growth of the High Concentration Photovoltaics Market

The drivers of the high-concentration photovoltaics market are minimum land space requirement, consistent improvements in its technology, awareness of renewable energy resources, and government assistance programs with essential financing schemes.

The adoption and advancement of renewable energy sources have grown immensely, with solar panels being among the most adopted forms of renewable energy. Attributing to this, the rising number of solar projects is estimated to be the primary driving factor for the growth in demand for high-concentration photovoltaic systems.

Reduction in the Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE) and improved efficiency with low system cost is another significant factor contributing to the surging global high-concentration photovoltaics market.

Challenges Faced by the High Concentration Photovoltaics Industry

Some of the restraints hindering the growth of the global high-concentration photovoltaics market are:

  • Expensive solar trackers required to get sunlight focused on the small photovoltaic area.
  • Non-utilization of diffuse radiation, perception, and bankability issues.
  • Lack of technology standardization.
  • Lack of adoption of technology.
  • Limited places with high direct normal irradiation.

North America Emerging as an Opportunistic High Concentration Photovoltaics Market

Supportive Government Initiatives Promoting Adoption of Renewable Energy Generating Opportunities for Growth

North America dominated the global high-concentration photovoltaics market in 2023. North America accounts for a market share of 34.2% in the global high-concentration photovoltaics market.

North America is a prominent contributor to the high-concentration photovoltaics market because of the technological advancements in the United States for solar power energy utilization. Latin America is the next vital region in the high-concentration photovoltaics market due to some large projects planned in Mexico.

Governments across the region are implementing stringent mandates to conserve the environment and are promoting the adoption of renewable by providing incentives to consumers and companies as well.

For instance, the government of France offers a high feed-in tariff for electricity generated via photovoltaic components that are integrated into buildings. Such initiatives are expected to positively influence the demand for a high-concentration photovoltaic market during the forecasting period.

Europe Contributing to the Growth of the High Concentration Photovoltaics Market

High Consumption of Building Integrated Photovoltaics in Europe to Drive the Growth of the Market

According to Future Market Insights, Europe is expected to provide immense growth opportunities for the high-concentration photovoltaics market, due to an increase in HCPV installations and Energy Payback Time. Europe’s high concentration photovoltaics market accounts for a 27.8% share of the total global market.

Increasing demand for building integrated photovoltaics to minimize reliance on non-renewable energy resources in the region to boost the growth of the market. Moreover, stringent mandates to ensure sustainability by governments are also expected to propel sales of high-concentration photovoltaics and other integrated photovoltaics over the coming years.

The increasing investments in research and development of novel integrated photovoltaics, rising consumer awareness for clean energy, and increasing demand for smart infrastructure development are prime factors that propel the high-concentration photovoltaics market in the region.

Asia Pacific Emerge as an Attractive High Concentration Photovoltaics Market

Technological Advancement in the Region Boosts the Market in the Coming Years

Asia Pacific is following North America and Latin America for the high-concentration photovoltaics market on account of growing HCPV production in China, Taiwan, and Japan.

Asia Pacific has a genuinely extensive populace that is reliably developing. The government initiatives for investments in renewable energy infrastructure in the developing countries in the region create growth prospects for the high-concentration photovoltaics market growth.

The manufacturers in the region are focusing on launching new and innovative products to maximize their sales potential. For instance,

  • In April 2022, Risen Energy, a China-based solar module manufacturer, announced the launch of its new BIPV products. The new lineup is claimed to be environment-friendly and has an improved energy generation performance than the previous lineup.
