Global Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells Market Highlights 2022 – 2030

The global dye-sensitized solar cells market is estimated to garner a sizeable revenue and grow at a CAGR of ~12% over the forecast period, i.e., 2022 – 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the rising investments towards renewable resources owing to the increasing energy demand and depletion of conventional energy resources. According to the International Energy Agency, the share of renewables in power generation in the Sustainable Development Scenario was 27 percent in 2019, up from 25 percent and 24 percent in 2018 and 2017 respectively. Along with these, surge in technological innovations associated with solar cells, and escalating demand for solar energy as a result of growing carbon emissions are also expected to drive market growth in the upcoming years. Furthermore, dye-sensitized solar cell technology offers several benefits over conventional energy sources such as high-performance ratio, ability to provide electricity at low light conditions, and cost-effectiveness. This in turn is projected to raise the demand for the product significantly in the near future.

The market is segmented by application into portable charging, BIPV/BAPV, embedded electronics, outdoor advertising, and automotive, out of which, the portable charging segment is anticipated to hold the largest share in the global dye-sensitized solar cells market. This can be accounted to the growing demand for dye-sensitized cells in portable charging owing to their ability to offer optimal wattage in mobile devices. Apart from these, the building applied photovoltaics (BAPV)/building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) segment is predicted to witness the highest growth in the future ascribing to the increasing demand for energy from residential areas for rooftop panels and water heating. Additionally, on the basis of type of dye, the natural segment is assessed to occupy the largest share during the forecast period, which can be credited to the fact that natural dyes cut down the high cost of metal complex sensitizer notably. 

Major Macro-Economic Indicators Impacting the Market Growth

Electricity Consumption

In 2018, the world’s total energy supply was 14282 Mtoe, wherein the highest share in terms of source was captured by oil, accounting for 31.6%, followed by coal (26.9%), natural gas (22.8%), biofuels and waste (9.3%), nuclear (4.9%), hydro (2.5%), and other (2.0%). Where there was an increase in energy demand in 2018, the year 2019 witnessed slow growth as the energy efficiency improved owing to decline in the demand for cooling and heating. However, in 2020, the electricity demand decreased by 2.5% in the first quarter of 2020 due to the outbreak of Coronavirus resulting in government imposed shutdowns in order to limit the spread of the virus, which was further followed by shutdown of numerous business operations impacting their growth. This also resulted in decline of 5.8% in the worldwide CO2 emissions which was recorded to be five times larger than the one recorded during the global financial crisis in 2009. However, in 2021, the demand for oil, gas and coal is estimated to witness growth, which is further projected to create opportunities for market growth. Moreover, rising environment degradation and awareness related to climate change is motivating many key players to employ sustainable energy strategies and invest significantly in environment-friendly power generation technologies with an aim to promote sustainable development among various nations around the world. Such factors are anticipated to promote the growth of the market in upcoming years.
