Further offtake discussions with other potential patterned solar glass customers are under way, according to Vishal, with plans to
The global solar PV glass market is characterized by several key trends that are expected to play an important role in the coming years. Declining solar PV glass prices are presumed to bolster the global market growth over the forecast period.
As PV module capacity increases, glass suppliers are investing in new solar glass production capacity. New facilities are popping up in North America, with unique features to ensure competitiveness, such as using recycled material.
In 2024, anti-reflective coatings commanded 57% of the solar photovoltaic glass market, supported by entrenched float infrastructure and proven light-capture gains. The segment's dominance is reinforced by standardized recipes and high yields, especially for commodity mono-perc modules.
Chinese leaders Xinyi Solar and Flat Glass Group deploy scale as their chief weapon, targeting 32,200 tonnes per day of combined capacity by end-2024. They leverage integrated sand mining, float lines, and module assembly to extract cost efficiencies difficult for smaller peers to match.
