Segmental Insights

Material Insights

Fluoride solar backsheet consists of three layers: inner, middle, and outer layer, which is attached to the outermost layer of a solar panel. The inner and outer layer of the solar backsheet is primarily made of polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) or polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). In contrast, the middle layer consists of polyethylene terephthalate (PET or polyester). In 2020, fluoropolymer backsheet had a majority of the market share. The fluoropolymer backsheet is costlier than non-fluoropolymer due to its additional safety features like proven hydrolytic stability and excellent resistance to weathering effects in various conditions with PVF or PVDF layer.

According to SolarPower Europe, over the past decade, between 2011 and 2020, solar power increased rapidly from 30.13 GW in 2011 to 138.2 GW in 2020, primarily aided by utility-scale projects and the fluoropolymer solar backsheet market.

In 2021, Bharat Electricronics Limites, an Indian state-owned company, invited companies for a 2.86 MW of grid-connected solar power projects in Amravati and Akola in Maharashtra. In addition, as per the tender document, the solar backsheet should have three-layered structures. The inner layer of fluoropolymer should be a UV-resistant polymer, the middle layer should be polyester-based, and the outer layer should be fluoropolymer.

Regional Insights

Asia Pacific plays a significant role in the global Solar Photovoltaic Backsheet market, Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the market. According to the British Petroleum Statistical Review of World Energy 2021, Asia-Pacific generated the majority of solar power compared to all regions.
