Rational and credible forecasts to support your business decisions.
Save time. Get reliable information.
Covering more than 230 solar cell manufacturers, the database is an extremely useful reference for monitoring both historical and forecast capacity. With this database, clients easily model demand for various types of PV manufacturing equipment and materials. The global PV industry is extremely dynamic making it difficult to track all cell makers all the time. The database is updated quarterly. The accompanying PowerPoint report summarizes recent changes and trends and provides insightful analysis.
