Global and China Solar Cell (Photovoltaic) Equipment Industry Report, 2010 The equipment expenditure of the thin film photovoltaic cell industry is much higher than that of traditional crystalline silicon photovoltaic cell industry. With the decline of the polysilicon price since H2 2008, the advantages of thin film photovoltaic cells in low-cost raw materials have become less impressive. Many manufacturers have become extremely cautious about or even stopped investing in the field of thin film photovoltaic cells, resulting in the decline of PV equipment industry. But, Chinese manufacturers of crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells have improved capacity significantly in 2010 to offset the decline of thin film photovoltaic cell equipment. In H2 2010, the polysilicon price began to soar. It’s expected that manufacturers may increase the investment in thin film photovoltaic cells, but obviously, the polysilicon price will not skyrocket as in 2008. Therefore, people are still cautious about thin film photovoltaic cells. Output Value of PV Equipment Industry, 2008-2013 Compared with traditional energy technologies, photovoltaic cell, especially thin film photovoltaic cell, still has lower conversion efficiency, which is a theoretica
