What is Solar Panel Manufacturing?
Photovoltaic module manufacture is the fabrication of a solar panel, which converts sunlight to electric energy, using semiconductor materials, typically silicon cells. Most of the PV manufacturing processes include the following: fabrication of silicon, wafer creation, and cells and modules production, including cell-to-cell connection and lamination (encapsulation) of cells with a variety of materials like tempered glass and back sheets. Quality control and certification are also included. A range of solar panels are available with different technologies such as monocrystalline, polycrystalline and thin-film solar panels with different efficiency and cost-structure. The production process has specialized Cut Up, cleaning, printing, lamination and testing equipment to apply precise manufacturing methods to reach optimum performance and durability to meet specific customer requirements. More contemporary solar modules include PERC or Passivated Emitter Rear Cell, bifacial and half-cell technologies, which are more efficient and are used in the manufacture of solar panels. The panels are used in residential, commercial and utility scale solar power plants, as well as to help reduce the carbon footprint of the planet.
What is Driving the Solar Panel Manufacturing Market?
The climate change and the government policies on the transition to renewable energy solutions in the world market have led to the fast growth in the manufacturing market of PV. The reduction in the cost of solar technologies and the improvement in the energy conversion efficiencies make solar power a tough competitor of the customary energy sources and generate enormous market potentials. Government subsidies and renewable energy mandates in some of the world's largest economies are driving high policy support. Corporate sustainability policies and Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) policies to reduce carbon emissions are driving record levels of solar procurement on the largest scale. Solar energy is also becoming an attractive long term investment to the residential and commercial consumer due to energy security and rising costs of electricity. Technological advancements such as automation and improved cell technology have decreased manufacturing costs and increased performance and longevity of the solar panel.
