A TrendForce EnergyTrend report for Q2 2022 says 56 cell manufacturers, accounting for about 80% of all cell makers, can now produce 210mm cells, representing a year-on-year growth of 51%. Moreover, 23 module makers have now adopted 600W+ technology.
As the cost of polysilicon keeps growing, the need to increase efficiency, reduce costs and improve IRR on projects has become more pressing than ever.
Large and ultra-high power PV products are advancing rapidly because of high power, efficiency, reliability and immense cost benefits. They now account for 80% of capacity and shipments of wafers, cells, and modules, and have thus become the mainstream of the market.
TrendForce tender figures show that the ratio of large 182 & 210mm (including 210R) modules being bought and in use has increased significantly.
An analysis of the announced 89.4GW of PV module tenders indicates that about 72.2GW (77%) of them have no specific size requirements and merely want power of 530W and above. 17.2GW of tenders have specific module size requirements, of which large (182 & 210mm) variations account for 13.97GW, or 81.2%.
Large high-power modules are becoming mainstream, particularly in ground power stations. Large distributed PV products are also expected to grow rapidly in the thriving market.
