The market share of solar crystalline silicon (advanced c-Si) cells is expected to account for 25.6 percent of the global market by 2030. C-Si is the oldest photovoltaic technology and is largely dominant in the solar market.
Designing solar cells based on geographical markets not only yields more electrical energy but also is a more resource-efficient and more sustainable practice for a clean energy transition.
PV Solar Industry and Trends Approximately 95% of the total market share of solar cells comes from crystalline silicon materials . The reasons for silicon’s popularity within the PV market are that silicon is available and abundant, and thus relatively cheap.
This, in turn, affects the solar cells’ properties, particularly their efficiency and performance. The current laboratory record efficiencies for monocrystalline and multicrystalline silicon solar cells are 26.7% and 24.4%, respectively .
Silicon-based solar cells are still dominating the commercial market share and continue to play a crucial role in the solar energy landscape. Photovoltaic (PV) installations have increased exponentially and continue to increase. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of cumulative PV installations was 30% between 2011 and 2021 .
There is no effective feedback loop from the field to the lab, or in many cases, the feedback loop is too long to have a meaningful impact on cell design. This means that there are no specific suggestions given about solar cell design based on field performance, yield modeling, or measurement.
