The global Polysilicon market is expected to develop USD 11.9 Billion by 2028, at a compound annual increase in price (CAGR) of 4.2% throughout the forecast period.

The key factors driving rapid growth of electronics and solar PV. Additionally, with the increasing demand by the populace for flagships consumer electronics, it widely demanded in the semiconductor industry for producing electronic chips.

The polysilicon market is anticipated to witness productive growth due the swelling demand for booming photovoltaic cells industry, smartphones, diminishing residential photovoltaic mechanisms installed cost, accelerating economic growth and growing urban population. The market is accelerated with escalated preference for mono-crystalline polysilicon, higher electricity production through solar energy, progressing polysilicon projects and growing preference for fluid bed reactor production process. However, growth hampering factors in the industry such as stringent regulations, fluctuating silicon metal prices, increasing diamond wafer penetration in China and high competitive environment.

Geographically, the global polysilicon market has five segmentation inclusive of Latin America and the Middle East & Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe and North America. China in Asia-Pacific is expected to gold the leading rank at global polysilicon market in 2017 due to propelling demand for country’s electronics and automotive division, rapid urbanization, exports of premium mechanisms and the high demand for the product in end-use industries. China is the largest supplier and producer of solar PV installations across the world. Also, China, Japan and South Korea are the key electronic component producers of electronic grade polysilicon market, which are expected to boost the demand for polysilicon in the region.

At second position of global polysilicon market, North America stands. Due to the government initiatives in the field of renewable energy sources, the market is expected to witness major growth. The European market with a moderate growth rate and increased demand for consumer electronics is anticipated to drive the market growth in the years to come. Lastly, markets of Latin America, Middle East & Africa will witness significant growth in the years to follow owing to rapid infrastructural developments and rapid industrialization in Qatar, the UAE, among others.
