Among these, photovoltaic (PV) technology is crucial in converting light energy into electricity, with crystalline silicon PV cells demonstrating significant market potential [2]. Over the past decade, the global installed capacity of PV systems has surged (Fig. 1 A), reaching 345.53 GW in 2023, representing a 74 % increase from 2022 (Fig. 1 B).
Global installed PV capacity reached around 400 GW at the end of 2017 and is expected to rise further to 4500 GW by 2050. Considering an average panel lifetime of 25 years, the worldwide solar PV waste is anticipated to reach between 4%-14% of total generation capacity by 2030 and rise to over 80% (around 78 million tonnes) by 2050. Therefore, the disposal of
The global cell production1 during 2022 was in the range of 350 GW to 370 GW; and is expected to increase again by 20 30% in 2023. The uncertainty in this data is due to the Solar cell production capacities mean: In the case of wafer silicon based solar cells, only the cells. In the case of thin-lms, the complete integrated module.
It is worthwhile to note that compared to the World Energy Outlook (WEO) 2021, the modelled electricity supply of solar photovoltaics (PV) by 2030 in the WEO 2022 has increased from 6970 TWh to 7551 TWh (+8.3%) and from 23,469 TWh to 27,006 TWh (+15.1%) by 2050 . The corresponding capacities are given as 5.05 TW in 2030 and 15.47 TW in 2050.
