The new study Low Iron Solar Glass: Market Shares, Strategy, and Forecasts,
Worldwide, 2015 to 2021. The 2015 study
has 642 pages, 356 tables and figures.
Worldwide markets for Low Iron Glass are growing as Concentrating Solar
Power (CSP) takes off as a way to generate electricity. Rapid adoption of CSP worldwide is occurring
as systems provide 24 hour per day power efficiently.
Low iron glass decorative and architectural markets
are poised to achieve significant growth based on an expectation of declining
prices for the low iron glass due to economies of scale.
As soon as a new market has 100 paying reference
accounts, it becomes a viable market.
CSP solar systems have reached that market inflection point and will
exceeded it in 2015.
Growth potential of the CSP sector is strong, part
of the solar growth that is poised to make solar energy represent 90% of the
world’s energy production within 25 years.
Just as smart phones grew rapidly once the price points were affordable
and the economies of scale large enough to drive down prices for the markets to
achieve significant growth, so also solar markets will take off. CSP has a strong ability to reduce the cost
of electricity produced. Compound annual
growth rates are expected to be made meaningless by penetration analysis when
the markets grow rapidly.
There are no hindrances to CSP growth except
technology and the new nanotechnologies make solar processes possible. The materials are simple, silica, silica, and
more silica. With solar energy available
to support the CSP low iron glass and the CSP module manufacturing processes,
the markets will grow at compound rates.
Costs of electricity from CSP plants at US $
0.15-0.24/kWh will decline to $.03 and lower by 2017 as the effect of the 35
year life span of the plant is factored into cost analysis. Once the plant is built very little labor is
necessary, there are no ongoing fuel costs.
This is a compelling economic story.
By 2021, expectations are that CSP capital costs
will decline even further by between 30% and 50%. New technology will make plant operations
even more efficient by that time.
According to Susan Eustis, the lead author of the
team that created the study, “Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) depends on low
iron glass because the low iron glass is clear and creates increased efficiency
in the capture of solar power. Low ion
glass is proving to be of value because it drives the market for CSP. CSP has been further proven in newly
operational installations, including Ivanpah.”
Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) has moved from the
trial stage to the early adopter stage.
Low iron glass CSP represents 3% of the world glass production. Markets
at $510 million in 2014 are expected to reach $4.7 billion by 2021. Growth is expected to achieve 15% of total
low iron glass at glass production in 2021, i.e. the same level as all
automotive glass.
