The renewable energy sector is evolving rapidly and solar power has emerged as one of the fastest growing technologies. While silicon photovoltaics (PV) continue to dominate the market, both established and emerging technologies are shaping the industry's future. Among these, thin film PV has yet to achieve widespread adoption, accounting for less than 5% of global solar installations. However, rising energy demand, ambitious decarbonization targets, and ongoing technological advancements suggest that thin film PV may be approaching a pivotal turning point.In IDTechEx's latest research report, "Thin Film Photovoltaics Market 2025-2035: Technologies, Players, and Trends", the thin film PV market is predicted to grow significantly over the next decade, with ramp up to adoption largely driven by the commercialization of perovskite PV. This webinar gives independent, critical analysis of the emerging and established thin film PV market technologies, evaluating the growing trends for the sector.This webinar will:Discuss thin film photovoltaics, introducing the established and emerging solar technologies including cadmium telluride, copper indium gallium selenide, perovskite, organic, dye sensitized, amorphous silicon, and gallium arsenide photovoltaicsDetail the traditional and novel application areas helping to drive the uptake of thin film PVIdentify the key emerging trends for the sector over the next decadePresenter: Maia Benstead, Technology Analyst, IDTechEx.
