Abstract
This report examines and quantifies the emerging market for thin film/flexible
photovoltaic technology. It examines the virtues and disadvantages or rival
research programs, such as silicon on metal, CIGS on metal and organic PV and
compares the various strategies now being employed to create new PV products
for the mobile computer and communications, building materials, outdoor power,
emergency power and other sectors. The report provides detailed forecasts of
PV shipments broken out by technology type and application. It also discusses
how far this new type of photovoltaics can eat into traditional photovoltaics
markets.
