Global Thin Film Photovoltaic Market is estimated to reach $240 billion by 2024 with CAGR of 32.3 % between 2016 and 2024. Thin Film Photovoltaic is designed to convert solar energy into electrical energy. It consists of layers of micron thick semiconductor materials that are deposited on a flexible or rigid substrates. These cells require limited or almost no silicon as compared to crystalline PV cells. Several types of thin film photovoltaic cells are available and are used in various industries owing to its low cost and efficiency in producing electricity. They have the ability to perform even in low light conditions, which has increased its dominance in the market.

Increasing energy cost, silicon shortage and low manufacturing cost of PV cells are the key factors supporting the growth of the thin film photovoltaic market. Moreover, the ever-changing climatic conditions has moved the consumer's preference toward the adoption of photovoltaic technologies have also fueled the growth of the market. Though, high cost of these technologies may hinder the growth of the market. Nevertheless, technological advancements can provide numerous growth opportunities in coming years.

The global thin films photovoltaic market is segmented by type, component, and application. The segment by type includes inorganic and organic photovoltaic. The component segment is further categorized into Tracker, thin film PV cells, Modules, crystalline silicon PV cells, and Optics. By application, the thin film photovoltaic market is segmented into military, utility, consumer, residential and non-residential sectors.
