Manufacturing Opportunities in Indian Solar PV

 

The rapidly falling PV system prices, the ever increasing coal and oil prices, and the furious pace of PV production capacity addition happening worldwide and ambitious governmental missions, have set the stage for an exponential growth the of solar PV. The implication of these developments for the Indian solar PV manufacturing sector is significant too.

This report evaluates the diversification opportunities for Indian corporates keen on entering the solar PV manufacturing sector. This includes both crystalline silicon and thin film technologies.

The report is divided into threesections. The first section examines the global market dynamics of the solar PV sector and the opportunities and challenges for this sector. This section also provides an introduction to the prominent technologies used in solar PV.

In the second section, the different parts of the crystalline silicon solar PV value chain are analysed (for both crystalline and thin films), with a view to provide insights on manufacturing opportunities available in these segments. The status of India for each of these segments is provided too. This section should help the reader in comparing the key industry dynamics worldwide and in India for various elements of the value chain.

The third section provides the highlights and summary and also provides a framework to enable Indian companies to decide on investing in solar PV manufacturing in India.

This report was prepared by Energy Alternatives India (EAI), a leader in the Indian renewable energy consulting and research sector, with a specialised focus on solar.

This is the definitive report available for those keen on knowing market and investment details for manufacturing along the entire solar PV value chain – from polysilicon to module, and even simple solar off-grid products The price of the report is Rs 12,000 only (205US $)
