Solar Backsheet Market is Expected to Register a high CAGR During the Forecast Period

Increase in the number of solar panel installations across the globe and increasing emphasis on utility-scale projects are the factors propelling the market growth in the forecast period.

According to TechSci Research report, Solar Backsheet Market - By Region, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2018-2028, the Solar Backsheet Market is expected to register robust growth during the forecast period, 2024-2028. The demand for solar roof tops with effective backsheets is expanding throughout the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors as a result of consumers' increasing choice for sustainable energy sources and the focus on utility-scale projects.

A PV backsheet is designed to protect solar PV modules, but some solar plants aren't able to last as long as they were intended to due to subpar backsheet materials. Asset managers and O&Ms are increasingly finding systemic solar PV module backsheet problems, with 12GW already acknowledged to be at risk. Asset owners are dealing with chronic, slow-moving early module failures, which eventually lead to loss of money. Systemic degenerative problems can take many different shapes and manifest at any point in a solar plant's lifespan. The cost and impact of systemic degenerative issues such as backsheet failure can be significantly decreased by fully digitizing the asset down to the module record.

The backsheet of a solar panel is put through repetitive mechanical and environmental stress, thus it must be effective in its job to guarantee the overall durability of the panel. The figure below depicts the layer structure of a typical photovoltaic (PV) module. Solar PV modules' backs are protected by a backsheet, which is typically constructed of a polymer or a blend of polymers. This layer's principal job is to keep internal circuitry electrically isolated from the outside world. Therefore, damage might pose a major threat to public safety.

There are single layer backsheets used in PV modules, however most backsheets have several layers. Polymer-based layers with thicknesses ranging from 30 to 270 m are commonly used in PV backsheets. These layers include those made of polymers such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyvinyl fluoride (PVF), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), and polyamide (PA). The long-term endurance of a backsheet for a solar panel is essential since it protects a PV module from stress in a major way.

The market is expected to be dominated by Asia-Pacific. The British Petroleum Statistical Review of World Energy 2021 found that Asia-Pacific produced the most solar energy of any area. With around 175 GW of solar PV installations, China is thought to be the largest nation in the market. By 2025, it is anticipated to have twice the installation capacity, which would help the backsheet market grow.

The Global Solar Backsheet Market is divided on the basis of type, installation technique, thickness and application. Based on installation technique, the market is further divided into flat roof solar, pitched roof solar, ground mount solar, and others.  On the basis of thickness, the market is further divided into less than 100mm, 100-500mm, & greater than 500mm.

On the basis of type, the market is further divided into fluoropolymer and non-fluoropolymer. Inner, middle, and outer layers make up the fluoropolymer solar backsheet, which is affixed to a solar panel's top layer. Polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) or polyvinylidene fluoride is generally used to create the inner and outer layers of the solar backsheet (PVDF). The intermediate layer, however, is made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET or polyester). The fluoropolymer market is predicted to grow significantly in the future.

Based on application, the market is further segmented into commercial, industrial, residential & utilities. During the forecast period, the utilities sector is anticipated to have a sizable market share for solar backsheets. This market is largely driven by the increase in solar power plant installations throughout the world, both for utility and distributed power generating applications, to fulfil the global energy demand.
