New NanoMarkets Report Pegs Thin-Film PV Substrate and Encapsulation Market at $1.3 billion by 2015
A new report from NanoMarkets says that, while glass will continue to dominate substrate and encapsulation materials used for thin-film photovoltaics (TFPV), new materials including metal foils, plastics, ceramics and composites will grow rapidly in importance. The main driver for using these new materials will be the need to support flexible PV in order to reduce PV panel costs using R2R processes and the rise of “intrinsically flexible products; notably those used for building-integrated PV (BIPV).” In total, the TFPV substrate/encapsulation market is expected to reach $1.3 billion by 2015, going on to reach $1.8 billion by 2017.
NanoMarkets/Smart Grid Analysis Releases Report on Smart Grid Opportunities in Europe
NanoMarkets/Smart Grid Analysis has just published a new report showing that by 2015 almost $5.0 billion in new business opportunities will emerge from Smart Grid opportunities in Europe. These revenues will come from high-voltage transmission, FACTS, transformers, distribution automation and management, energy storage and smart meters.

NanoMarkets Publishes New Report on Opportunities for Silver in the PV Sector
A new report from industry analyst firm NanoMarkets says that although the photovoltaics (PV) business has slowed in the past year, the PV industry will continue to be a major consumer of silver to the tune of about $1.0 billion dollars annual revenues throughout the next several years. And while overall sales of silver into this sector will remain somewhat flat, NanoMarkets has identified specific areas within the PV industry where the silver industry can expect growth.
NanoMarkets has just issued a new report on the building integrated photovoltaics market (BIPV) that predicts that the global BIPV market will reach $8.2 billion in revenues by 2015 driven by the cost advantage that BIPV can provide versus conventional PV solutions. Furthermore, BIPV provides both the improved aesthetics and necessary energy efficiency that will allow property developers and owners to better compete in stagnating real estate markets.
