Pressure Sensitive Tape Materials and Technologies Utilized by the Thin-Film, Crystalline Silicon, and Roll-to-Roll (R2R) Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Module Manufacturers (Presently and in the Future)

摘要

Growth of Solar Modules is forecasted to increase dramatically for at least the next decade. This provides outstanding opportunities for the downstream segments and participants, as well as the material suppliers. For manufacturers of: adhesive & sealants, films & sheets, laminates and tape suppliers this market segment represents one of the very few, with dramatic growth opportunities. The solar space looks to be an outstanding area of growth, for organizations which can provide improved efficiencies and performance, at competitive pricing. With the availability of financing, controlled growth subsidies by government, and pricing levels driving toward grid parity, solar technology will become of the most important energy sectors for the future.
