The 2019 global solar energy demand is expected to reach 112 gigawatts

According to PV Info link analysis of data, at the end of may decide control photovoltaic PV subsidy means that new installed capacity in China will decline in the global scope, this year is expected to 2018 new photovoltaic capacity is about 88 gw. At the same time, the Chinese government's policy changes in pv value chain on the spot market price has fallen by about 30%. However, in 2019, analysts expect demand will increase dramatically, global solar energy demand will reach 112 gigawatts.

the main reason is that China's solar energy target to upgrade to the 2020, and began to rapid growth in India and the United States market. In addition, PV Info link capacity in 16 countries around the world next year is expected to increase more than 1 GW. In Europe, the country will be in Germany, Spain, France, the Netherlands and Ukraine.

China's share of global photovoltaic capacity is decreasing gradually, the installed capacity of more than half of the global market last year. PV Info link, is expected this year, the world's largest solar market in China will account for 39% of global capacity, 38% next year. Hold of the eu member states to the global solar market is expected to increase from 11% to 12%, at the same time, the European production capacity is expected from 9. 5 gw to 13. 5 gw.

PV Info link is also expected to merge between manufacturers will increase, the world's leading polysilicon manufacturers, especially in western China manufacturers, will expand rapidly, and because of the large manufacturers to reduce costs, many small businesses will gradually withdraw from the market. According to the PV Info link, this development also will be harmful to leading overseas manufacturers.

many small wafer manufacturers may exit the market gradually, single crystal round market integration will follow a similar pattern. For polycrystalline silicon chip suppliers, however, analysts believe the price difference is small, which means that the integration will slow and many of these manufacturers might demand picks up again next year to return to the market. For battery manufacturers, analysts say large enterprises have obvious advantages, but lower cost producers may be marginalized.

the front-runner in China take the quality as the center of the plan, with the help of a single PERC product production and efficiency of further ascension, PV Info link prediction for this kind of product will be an advantage, single PERC's market share will increase from 28% to 46%.

for the first half of 2019, analysts expect demand is weak, mainly because of three reasons: first, seasonal factors, such as the Chinese lunar New Year holiday, second, the Top Runner program only a small part of the project will be completed in the first half of the year. The third reason is that in countries with high demand in the first quarter usually, such as India, Japan and Australia, are likely to see growth of less than usual. As a result, analysts predict the middle of next year will further reduce the price, the lowest price in April.

, by contrast, the second half of next year is expected to rebound strongly, which may lead to regional supply bottlenecks. Is expected in the third quarter and fourth quarter demand will reach at least 32 gw, a single product may account for 60% of the market. This may also result in polycrystalline and monocrystalline silicon supply bottlenecks. According to the data of PV Info link, in general, the solar industry will return to higher boom.
