Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/21/2017 -- The global solar photovoltaic (PV) materials Market is highly fragmented owing to the presence of a large pool of participants. Transparency Market Research (TMR) states that the top four players, namely Applied Materials Inc., BASF SE, Shin-Etu Chemicals Co. Ltd., and Wacker Chemie AG, contributed for a little more that 44% to the global market in 2015. However, the leading players are gaining significantly from their technical expertise and experience, making it difficult for small and new players to compete with them. Nevertheless, extensive advancement and continual innovations demonstrated by small companies are most likely to help them grow, and compete with international players.

High Cost Associated with Solar Power could Hinder Market's Growth
Although, solar power is considered as clean energy, the materials used are very difficult to recycle or to reuse, which causes adverse effect on environment. Also, the space required to produce significant amount of energy through solar power is very large, which may restrict the market for solar photovoltaic materials from growing. Furthermore the high installation and high maintenance cost associated with it could hinder the market's growth. Materials such as copper indium diselenide and cadmium telluride are cheaper, but have low power conversion efficiency. Market players are thus continuously investing in research programs to increase the efficiency of solar photovoltaic materials they offer. Governments around the world are encouraging scientists and researchers to develop technologically advanced processes, which is expected to boost the global solar photovoltaic materials market in the coming years.
