The global demand for Solar Encapsulation Market is presumed to reach the market size of nearly USD XX MN by 2028 from USD XX MN in 2021 with a CAGR of XX% under the study period 2022 - 2028.
Solar encapsulation is basically the technique used to protect solar panels against degradation from external factors. It ia a vital step in the construction of solar cells. It includes encapsulating photovoltaic (PV) cells with a polymeric material, generally ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) film. The role of encapsulation film is to protect the solar cell and ensure its performance and efficiency. It provides adhesion between the solar cells, the top surface and the rear surface of the PV module. Solar encapsulation protects the solar cell from corrosion and ultraviolet (UV) radiation and extends the life of solar cells., It provides optical and electrical transmissivity by keeping the moisture out.
Market Dynamics
The key factor driving the demand for the solar encapsulation market is the widespread adoption of solar panels and the escalating demand for electricity all over the globe. Growing environmental concerns and depleting conventional energy sources are other factors contributing to the growth of this market. Rising private and public investments to modernize the existing infrastructure are surging the demand for the solar encapsulation market. Moreover, the development of low-cost encapsulant materials, amorphous silicon cells, and non-EVA-based encapsulations are expected to create lucrative growth opportunities for this market in the upcoming years. In addition, the availability of favourable policies and subsidies on the installation of solar panels by governments of various countries is expanding the demand for this market.
