Solar Energy: A Practical Green Energy Source
- According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), cumulative solar PV capacity reached almost 398 GW and generated over 460 TWh, representing around 2% of global power output, in 2017. A total of 99.1GW of grid-connected solar was installed in 2017. This was equivalent to 30% year-on-year growth over the 76.6 GW solar capacity installation in 2016.
- Rise in scale of production of solar modules and increase in demand for highly efficient solar cells are expected to propel the adoption of laser processes in industrial manufacture of solar cells
- Lasers have been widely used for various processes including cutting, drilling, welding, marking, and engraving of solar cells. Demand for laser systems is anticipated to increase substantially in the manufacture of thin-film solar modules for applications such as module edge isolation scribing and cell interconnects in the near future. Drilling of solar glass by laser has been an innovative approach with several advantages over conventional drilling techniques used in the photovoltaic industry.

Capacity Expansions across Solar Industry Key Driver of Solar Laser Drilling Market
- The 2015 Paris Agreement on Climate Change aims to limit the global average temperature rise below 2?C. This is likely to necessitate the reduction of energy-related carbon dioxide emissions by more than 70% by 2050, as compared to the 2015 levels. This can only be achieved with large-scale deployment of renewable forms of energy, including solar energy.
- Solar energy is anticipated to be one of the essential pillars of environmentally-friendly power supply. Solar PV is expected to lead renewable electricity capacity growth, expanding by almost 580 GW by 2023.
- Using a laser to drill holes is preferred, since it introduces energy selectively at the drilling position, with no mechanical contact of the drilling tool. As there is no tool wear-out, and laser emission can be organized precisely, the laser drilling process becomes highly reproducible and thus, facilitates efficient factory automation.

Crystalline Silicon and Thin-film Solar Cells Manufacturers to Boost Demand for Solar Laser Drilling
- Silicon-based solar cells (mono- and poly-crystalline silicon) represent the first generation of solar cells. As of 2017, the silicon-based solar cells covered more than 80% of the world’s installed solar capacity.
- Thin-film solar cells based on Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS), Cadmium Telluride (CdTe), or amorphous silicon represent the second generation of solar cells, and serve as the low-cost substitutes to crystalline silicon cells
- Thin-film systems require less material per surface, avoid costly purification steps, and do not necessitate silver electric contacts vis-à-vis silicon-based solar cells. The solar laser drilling market is likely to offer significant potential for crystalline silicon (c-Si) and thin-film solar cell variants owing to the accuracy, cost-efficiency, and flexibility associated with solar laser drilling.
