Introduction

Abstract

Report Summary:

In 2009, revenues for the world PV manufacturing equipment market declined by an estimated 23% on 2008. The economic downturn and resulting problems that equipment end users have experienced with securing capital from financial institutions have been the most impacting factors.

Economic conditions are projected to improve slowly during 2010, which will stimulate PV manufacturing equipment growth. The first half of 2010 is likely to be a difficult time for most PV manufacturing equipment suppliers, with end users (and financial institutions) remaining cautious over large investment. PV manufacturing equipment investment during the second half of 2010 is projected to be stronger as recovery continues. A full recovery, to 2008 levels, is forecast in 2011.

Some of the key findings are:

The world Market for PV Manufacturing Equipment is forecast to exceed $9.2 billion in 2013.
In 2009, revenues for the world PV manufacturing equipment market were estimated to have declined by 23% on 2008.
