Solar encapsulation materials are used to provide adhesion between the rear surfaces and top surfaces of solar photovoltaic cells. They assist in enhancing the life of solar cells by adding a thin layer to protect them and ensure proper performance.
As the trend of industrial process automation continues to create deeper inroads across diverse sectors, there is a robust surge in demand for energy worldwide. According to a study by the International Energy Agency, the demand for electricity across the world is estimated to surge at 2.1% per year till 2040, which is more than double the rate of overall primary energy demand.
Hence, numerous industry players are focusing on installing solar photovoltaic panels for meeting their growing energy needs. As solar encapsulation materials are extensively used in solar photovoltaic panels, owing to their excelling stability at high UV exposures and elevated temperatures, such developments are anticipated to bolster the sales in the global market.
Implementation of several regulations by government and environmental protection organizations regarding the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), due to rising concerns regarding environmental pollution is hindering the sales of solar encapsulation materials in the global market.
In addition to this, extravagant cost of solar cell and the high cost of solar panels installation & maintenance is resulting in declining their sales, consequently restraining the demand for solar encapsulation materials.
As per FMI, North America is projected to account for a significant share in the global solar encapsulation materials market during the forecast period 2022-2032.
With surging trend of electrification across the automotive industry and increasing fuel prices, there is a swift rise in customer inclination towards electric vehicles. Citing this trend, key automobile manufacturers are emphasizing on introducing self-rechargeable electric vehicles.
For instance, in 2021, Aptera, an American startup high-efficiency car company announced launching the world’s first Solar Electric Vehicle that requires no charging for most daily use. Introduction of such automobiles and rising integration of solar cells in automotive vehicles is estimated to augment the growth in the North America market.
Future Market Insights states that the Asia Pacific excluding Japan is projected to emerge as the highly lucrative market for solar encapsulation materials between 2022 and 2032.
There is a rapid surge in demand for electricity, due to surging adoption of electrical-powered products and deepening industrialization. Hence, governments in several countries are undertaking numerous initiatives to increase the production of renewable energy.
For instance, according to the India Brand Equity Foundation, the Government of India announced allocating nearly US$ 616.76 Mn for constructing of solar energy production units under the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme. A slew of such initiatives is anticipated to augment the demand for solar encapsulation materials in the Asia Pacific excluding Japan market.
