Global OPV (Organic Photovoltaic) Technology Market Definition

An OPV cell is a type of solar cell where the absorbing layer is based on organic semiconductors- typically either polymers or small molecules. The purpose of an OPV is to generate electricity from sunlight. OPV aims to provide an earth-abundant and low-energy production photovoltaic solution. This technology also has the theoretical potential to provide electricity at a lower cost than first and second-generation solar technologies. The benefits of OPV technology such as- wide abundance of building block materials that may reduce supply and price constraints, and it is flexible substrates as it is used for a wide variety of applications.

Organic Photovoltaic (OPV) Technology has the potential to transform solar energy completely into redefined energy of electricity, as the technology has the capability to supply electric energy at a lower cost in comparison to first and second-generation solar technologies. With the increasing concerns regarding greenhouse gas emission, and carbon footprint the market is expected to have lucrative growth. The trends in building the eco-friendly structure are expected to positively impact the market growth along with the aforementioned factors.

This technique is considered one of the best options to increase solar integration into the built environment. The renewable source of energy is one of the best paths to create a sustainable future energy system. The uptake of renewable energy sources drives sustainable development and results in boosting the market. In addition, significant efforts have been conducted for the smart building envelopes and energy management systems that drive the market growth. The growing economic attractiveness of distributed PV systems leads to a rapid expansion in the coming decades, which attracts hundreds of millions of private investors. Thereby propels a positive impact on market growth. The growth in the population, rising developments in the infrastructure, and flourishing industrial sectors are some factors that contribute to the significant rise in the electricity demand.

Organic Photovoltaic have received widespread attention due to promising qualities, such as solution processability, tuneable electronic properties, low temperature manufacture, and cheap and light materials. The OVPs have higher efficiencies and it remain advantageous due to low material toxicity, cost, and environmental impact. Soluble organic molecules enable roll-to-roll processing techniques and allow for low cost manufacturing. This low cost manufacturing may be a driving factor for the growth of the market for OPV technology. Additionally, the low efficiencies of OPV cells are related to their small exciton diffusion length and low carrier motilities. This results in the use of thin active layers that affect overall device performance. These are the driving factors that help to fuel the market for global OPV technology.

However, the difficulties in the generation of electric power are considered as one of the challenging factors that hinder the growth of the market. Moreover, the shorter life span of the OPV is another factor that restricts market growth.
