The global TOPCon Solar Cell market size was valued at USD 9008.85 Million in 2022 and will reach USD 30427.99 Million in 2028, with a CAGR of 22.49% during 2022-2028.
In 2013, The Fraunhofer Solar Energy Institute in Germany created TOPCon cell technology, which is a revolutionary passivated contact solar cell. TOPCon is an abbreviation for Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact. TOPCon consists of an ultra-thin tunnel oxide and a phosphorus-doped silicon layer.
TOPCon cell uses a micro-nano tunnelling oxide layer, a carrier-selective microcrystalline silicon film laminated functional structure on the back, and cutting-edge and high-efficiency passivation contact technology. This novel structure exhibits a two-way enhancement in passivation performance and electrical conductivity, resulting in significant cell conversion efficiency and power output gains. The tunnel oxide layer's structure further minimises subsurface recombination, considerably improving cell conversion efficiency.
Market Drivers and Impact
Market demand growth in Asia-Pacific region The Asian Development Bank released its forecast on December 14th, 2021, saying that the GDP growth rate of Asian emerging market countries will be 5.3% in 2022.
Sustained economic growth and improvement of living standards in Asia will make its member countries become major energy consumers in the foreseeable future. A study by BP (British Petroleum Company) shows that by 2040, Asia, including China and India, will account for 43% of global energy demand and at the same time account for more than 50% of energy demand growth. In contrast, the energy demand of 36 countries of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) (including most large economies in America and Europe) will be the same as the current situation. Among the top 10 countries with installed PV in 2019, there are 6 Asia-Pacific countries (China, India, Japan, Vietnam, Australia and South Korea).
China has become one of the most important suppliers of non-fossil fuel-based energy and technology. As the world's largest industrial chain cluster of solar power generation and the largest exporter of products, China has a rich application market, a good investment environment and the largest number of invention and application patents. China's solar cell industry has a complete industrial chain system from the production of high-purity crystalline silicon in the upstream to the efficient production of solar cells in the middle reaches to the construction and application of solar photovoltaic power plants in the downstream.
The relatively low labor cost in Asia, the improvement of industrialization level and the development of regional economic cooperation are some main factors supporting the growth of this industry in this region. China, India, and other emerging economies in Asia, with the improvement of economic level and the development of potential downstream markets, have driven the growth of TOPCon Solar Cell market.
In December 2019, the European Commission announced the "European Green Agreement" to tackle climate change and promote sustainable development, and to promote the "green development" of the European Union. The agreement proposes that by 2050, Europe will become the first "carbon neutral" region in the world, that is, the net carbon dioxide emissions will be reduced to zero. At the industrial policy level, the EU focuses on clean energy, circular economy, digital technology and so on. In 2019, the installed solar energy in the EU increased by more than 100%. Europe has always been a leader in household PV. In 2015, the French Parliament passed a new environmental law, which stipulated that the roofs of new buildings in the French business district must be covered by green plants or solar cells.
On October 19th, 2021, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced that it would support the next generation of advanced solar power technology research with 40 million U.S. dollars, aiming at integrating the research forces of universities and enterprises to jointly tackle key problems, achieving breakthroughs in research and development of solar power technology and supporting energy storage technology, further improving the efficiency of solar power generation and the service life of solar power facilities, reducing the cost of solar power, expanding the installed capacity of solar power, and helping to achieve the goal of 100% clean power in the United States in 2035.
The policy support of the United States and the European Union for solar energy industry will promote the development and popularization of solar cell technology and the growth of the TOPCon Solar Cell market.
