Market Definition

Organic solar cells or organic photovoltaics refer to multilayer photovoltaic devices made with organic compounds, converting solar energy into electricity. An organic solar cell is manufactured using carbon-based material and organic electronics instead of silicon as a semiconductor. Organic cells may also be referred to as plastic solar cells or polymer solar cells; compared to crystalline silicon solar cells, organic solar cells are made from compounds that can be dissolved in ink and printed onto plastics. This gives the organic solar cells the attribute of flexibility, lightweight and easy incorporation in places or structures, among others.

Organic solar cell technology is still developing. The power conversion efficiency of the organic solar cell does not match the efficiencies achieved by inorganic silicon solar cells. But the OPVs showcase a wide range of potential applications, and it might not be long before they become the commonly used technology. OPVs are easy to manufacture compared to inorganic solar cells and cheap to produce, and physically versatile. The working principle of organic solar cells is just like that of monocrystalline and polycrystalline silicon solar cells. They generate electricity through the photovoltaic effect in three simple steps, such as:

• Electrons are knocked loose from the semiconducting polymer material when light is absorbed
• The flow of the loose electrons constitutes an electric current
• The current is captured and transferred to wires

The OPV’s versatility can be attributed to the diversity of organic materials designed and synthesized for the absorber, acceptor, and interfaces. Organic solar cells find applications in automotive, rooftop panels, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), consumer electronics, and others.

Middle East and Africa Organic Solar Cell (OPV) Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• Increasing awareness towards the use of renewable energy for power generation

The continuous growth in the population, and the increasing flourishment in the industrial sector, coupled with growth in infrastructure development, which is leading to a significant increase in the demand for electricity Middle East and Africa. Countries are investing heavily in power-generating resources by installing new power plants to meet the energy demand for unhindered development. This has led to increased pollution and environmental hazards. As the focus is shifting towards climate conservation, there is an increase in the adoption of renewable energy sources for power generation and harnessing solar energy for electricity is one of the leading technology Middle East and Africa.

• Surge in demand for building integrated photovoltaic products (BIPV)

Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) refers to materials that are utilized for building to replace the conventional building materials in the roofs, skylights, and facades, among others. With BIPV, the buildings have an outer layer of the structure that also generates electricity for on-site use or export to the grid. The BIPV applications are often for commercial and industrial buildings. The use of OPVs has significant advantages over silicon solar cells as they result in cost reduction. They are lightweight, flexible and visibly transparent. This has resulted in growth in the adoption of organic photovoltaics as material in BIPV applications.

Organic photovoltaics are thin-filed and flexible and can be integrated into the sides of buildings, replacing conventional glass windows; this offers a large available area for solar energy absorption. OPC skylights are integrated using ultra-thin organic solar cells, which allow daylight to penetrate while simultaneously generating electricity.

Opportunities

• Increasing applications in DIY projects and gadgets

Recent years have witnessed extensive research in the development of organic solar cells for increasing efficiency and making organic solar cells more flexible and thin. The results achieved are commendable. The researchers are able to achieve a power conversion efficiency (PCE) in excess of 10%. The recent developments have led to the advancement in flexible nature, mechanical bending stability and good conformability. This has led to applications of organic solar cells in applications such as power generation in wearable electronics and small projects.

There is an increasing demand in the market for portable and wearable future electronic devices, such as smartwatches or biometric sensors, which employ lightweight, flexible and efficient power generation resources. This has opened up exciting opportunities for organic solar cells as next-generation power supply resources due to their desirable properties. As a result, many research activities to further develop organic solar cells to increase their PCE and flexibility are undertaken Middle East and Africa.

• Increasing government focus on climate change

Middle East and Africa warming driven by human-induced emission of greenhouse gases and shifts and changes in weather patterns owing to the constants altered ecosystem is resulting in accelerated climate changes in every region Middle East and Africa. It is not slowing down and has an immense impact on human well-being and poverty around the globe. According to The World Bank, climate change may push up to 132 million people towards poverty. There is a movement throughout the world, and the major governments are realizing and acting toward adopting and combating measures to avoid further harm to the world's ecosystem.

Restraints/Challenges

• Higher setup cost of OPV systems

There has been a strong focus on accelerating the adoption of solar electric systems, such as organic photovoltaic systems, for developing building integrated photovoltaic systems. But despite these efforts, the inculcation of BIPV (building integrated photovoltaic) design with the building design is less as compared to the buildings with rack-mounted organic solar cell systems. This adds to the increased cost of integration of design pre-implementation. This proves to be a significant restraining factor to the market.

Though the adoption of renewable energy is encouraged and is thus increasing with increasing focus on climate change, solar adopters are seen to be skewed in most regions of the globe. This skewness is attributed to the income of the people.

• Low-efficiency rates of organic solar cells

The power conversion efficiency in a solar cell refers to the fraction of light energy the cell is able to convert to electricity. There is a growing opportunity for the adoption of organic solar cells as they provide flexibility and can conform to any surface, such as the roof of a car or on the outside of wearable electronics. The major challenge which has impeded the technology’s commercialization is the relatively low power conversion efficiency as compared to the efficiency provided by the inorganic silicon solar cells.
