Aug. 24, 2011 - PRLog -- NanoMarkets Announces Addition of “Markets for Indium-Based Materials in Photovoltaics” to Firm’s Report Publishing Schedule

Glen Allen, VA:  Industry analyst firm NanoMarkets today announced the addition of a new report titled, “Markets for Indium-Based Materials in Photovoltaics,” to its publication schedule.  The report will be released the week of August 29, 2011.  Details about the report are available on the firm’s website at www.nanomarkets.net.

This report is part of NanoMarkets’ ongoing analysis of both the PV materials space and the indium industry.  In particular we discuss what the evolution of new transparent conductors and the continued growth of the PV market will mean in terms of new opportunities for the indium industry.  

This opportunity analysis is carried out in the context of the big changes that the indium industry is going through at the present time with the recent developments in Chinese indium policy.  We also examine how new manufacturing technologies – especially solution processing -- will impact the kinds of indium-based materials that will be required by the PV industry.  In addition, we examine the strategies that various firms in the PV supply chain are adopting with regard to indium-based materials.  Forecasts of indium consumption by PV technology including; crystalline silicon, thin-film silicon, CdTe, CIGS , OPV and DSC and other PV markets for indium-based materials.  Forecasts of indium consumption in PV by material type are also included.  Alternative scenarios and confidence intervals are also considered.  

Points Covered:

Trends in indium use by the PV industry in the past two years
•   Opportunities for solar panel firms
•   Opportunities for materials firms and indium extraction firms
•   Opportunities for manufacturing equipment firms

Indium-Based Materials for PV Markets

•   ITO inks
•   Usage of indium by CIGS and CIS PV
•   Indium use in next-generation PV
•   Safety, health, and environmental concerns with indium production and use   

Markets and Opportunities for Indium-Based Materials in the PV Sector
•   Future markets for ITO in the PV market
•   ITO in thin-film silicon PV   
•   ITO in CdTe PV
•   ITO in CIGS PV
•   ITO in OPV and DSC   
•   ITO and crystalline silicon PV
•   Absorber material markets for indium-related materials
•   CIGS/CIS markets
•   Printed CIGS?
•   Indium phosphide and PV
•   Opportunities for indium as a replacement for cadmium
•   The impact of the PV market for indium on the indium market as a whole
