MARKET REPORT 2013 E A QUALIFIED RECORD-YEAR FOR PV With at least 37 GW of newly-added capacity globally, 2013 was another record-year for photovoltaic (PV) installations. The global PV cumulative installed capacity reached an impressive 136.7 GW at the end of last year, which represents a 35% increase compared to the year before. The internationalisation trend of PV markets already observed in 2012 accentuated in 2013, with Asia taking the lead over Europe as the n°1 region for new PV installations. While Europe concentrated more than 70% of the world’s new PV installations in 2011 and still around 59% a year later, with more than 10 GW of new capacity installed in 2013, Europe only accounted for 28% of the world’s market. Dynamic Asian markets, led by China and Japan (around 11 GW and 7 GW respectively), partially explain this trend reversal, as the Asia-Pacific region represented 57% of last year’s global market. Such trend is expected to continue, with China experiencing a robust and sustained growth which should enable the country to remain the number-one market in the coming years. Conversely, European PV markets have experienced a slowdown. In a number of European countries, this can be explained by harmful and retrospective measures that have badly affected investors’ confidence and PV investments viability. Italy in particular experienced a 70% market decrease compared to the year before. Germany also experienced in 2013 a steep PV market decrease (57% decrease compared to 2012).
