While organic photovoltaics (OPV) still hasn't achieved escape velocity from lab results into real commercialized products, according to a new report from industry analyst firm NanoMarkets, the current window for achieving success appears to be shaping up in a medium-term scope. New projections from the firm forecast OPV revenues to crack $500 million in revenues by 2022 — assuming the roadmaps and plans of key OPV firms stay the course and are not delayed any more.

According to a new NanoMarkets report, the total market for building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) is expected to grow from $2.4 billion this year to nearly $6 billion by 2017 and nearly $23 billion by 2021. 

The market for building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) glass will grow from $823 million ($US) in 2014 to $2.7 billion in 2019 according to a newly released report by industry analyst firm NanoMarkets.  The report also states that BIPV glass shipped will surpass 7.6 million square meters by 2021. This report is the latest study from this firm, which has been covering the BIPV market since 2007 

A new report from NanoMarkets titled “Dye-Sensitized Cell Markets –2014,” says that the dye-sensitized cell (DSC) modules market will return to growth and generate revenues of almost $675 million in 2021

Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets has published a new report titled, “Solar Storage Markets -2013.”  This report forecasts revenues from batteries and supercapacitors for solar energy storage will reach almost $2 billion (USD) in revenues by 2018.   

NanoMarkets today published its latest BIPV projections in a report titled, “Building-Integrated Photovoltaics Markets -2012.”  NanoMarkets estimates that the entire BIPV market already generates around $2.1 billion ($US) today and that this figure will grow to $7.5 billion by 2015.  Much of this growth will come at the expense of conventional solar panels as the better economics and aesthetics of BIPV make their impact on end users.  NanoMarkets also expects new builds to contribute 63 percent of all BIPV revenues in 2015.

NanoMarkets today issued a new report titled, “Building Attached Photovoltaics Markets” that sees solid near term opportunities for the BAPV market which will grow from $1.9 billion (USD) this year to a peak of $5.9 billion (USD) in 2017 before being surpassed by building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). The report analyzes and pinpoints the opportunities that are likely to emerge in the BAPV market in the next few years. Within the report we quantify those opportunities in a series of forecast charts and tables that are provided in both value and volume terms. Volume shipments are forecasted in terms of area covered and MW shipped. Breakouts in the forecasts are provided by type of building, type of BAPV products roofing and key absorber materials used. In addition, we project the nations and regions that will generate the most revenues for BAPV.

Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets today announced that it will release a new report that analyzes the commercial development and opportunities for photovoltaic (PV) encapsulation.   The report titled, “Markets and Materials for Thin-Film, DSC and Organic PV Encapsulation – 2012” will be available in early October of 2012.
