Emerging Solar PV Markets - 2012
Date: 19 November 2012

A patchwork of policy drivers, coupled with rapidly falling system costs, presents a multitude of opportunities globally for solar PV investment outside of developed European, North American and Asian markets. These opportunities span the entire PV value chain, and their geographical dispersion as well as local complexity will present both growth markets but challenges for solar companies.

In this study, IHS examines the diverse and potentially high-growth prospects of solar PV deployment in markets that have yet to emerge with the combined capabilities across its macroeconomic, energy strategy, and industry insight teams. Along with IHS' in-depth analysis of 40 country snapshots, 41 PV company profiles, and country by country PV forecasts through 2035, purchase of this new market study includes a unique data pack (.xlsx) with PV project pipeline data for 233 PV developers and more than 1,100 PV projects.

Data Included in this Report:

  • Emerging PV market demand forecasts in the global context: Detailed forecasts with IHS's robust top-down and bottom-up methodology provides a holistic view of the range of factors delivering high and low growth deployment levels, including a resource overview, country-level project supply and demand, political, regulatory and business environment, and key infrastructure factors, and fiscal terms. 
  • Country development environment analysis: Includes both nascent and scaling markets with varying maturity levels in terms generation mix diversity, grid infrastructure, and project deployment processes. These factors provide crucial context for understand project success rate and the positioning of solar PV in each country's broader political-economic agenda. 
  • Developer Analysis: Bottom-up company profiling, and top-down value chain analysis clarify the developer landscape. IHS leverages our industry-leading project data to quantify and qualify market structure in terms of project sponsors and compares their business models to indicate key channels for investment or partnering. 
  • Geographic Scope: Africa Middle East, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Emerging Europe. This new IHS study analyzes major growth areas for solar PV projects through 2035, capturing regional dynamics in terms of high economic growth and complex project development opportunities.


Key Questions Answered in this Report:

  • What are the opportunities that exist in emerging regions? 
  • What government policies, in which countries, best mitigate PV investment risk? 
  • Are solar PV installations competitive with industrial retail power prices? 
  • Which regions will deploy residential, commercial or power plant PV systems?
  • Who are the local manufacturers and suppliers active in these regions?
