The Silicon shortage has - contributed to bump in price learning curve But has also - allowed faster reduction of silicon specific consumption - induced faster progress in automation - opened a window of opportunities for other technolgies: • Thin Films-ALL • Concentrators • Organic Many initiatives under way.

Conclusions - 1 Progress in silicon wafer-based technology with time has determined the price- learning curve of PV modules that shows a decrease of about 20% for each doubling of capacity. This progress has two driving forces: market size and technological improvement. This did not happen by chance but is the result of the combination of market assisting measures and research, development and demonstration activities with both private and public support. Crystalline silicon based technology has the capability to continue following the established price experience curve, with direct production costs expected to achieve significant reduction to around 1.00 €/W in 2013 and 0,75 €/W in 2020 and even lower in the long term. This will happen if R&D effort is directed to address the most critical issues and the technology areas most likely to allow a continued progress of PV towards full sustainability.
Conclusions - 2 In the long term, it is expected that silicon technology will still play an important role in the PV sector, although there is uncertainty regarding the precise module efficiency, the silicon consumption, the cell and module architecture and component materials after 2020, when the market size is expected to be around 30 GW/year. It is likely that silicon technology by this time will have incorporated aspects which are now related to novel or emerging technologies, and that new materials will also be included in the processing sequences. In the long run, true distinctions between wafer and thin film technologies and between cells and modules may no longer be appropriate. In the long term, it is expected that module efficiency will exceed the current laboratory record. This may only be possible by incorporating technologies at the periphery of the device such as up or down converters. For this reason, basic and applied research on advanced concepts and materials should be included in crystalline silicon projects.
