Report Description Table of Contents The graphene solar cells market was worth USD 205 million in 2023 and will be worth USD 518.55 million by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 12.3% during the forecast period. The market for graphene solar cells is fueled by the need for effective solar energy systems as well as the characteristics of graphene, which include high electrical conductivity, flexibility, and transparency. The current trend of going green globally to achieve climate change objectives has been forcing researchers to look for better and more efficient solar technology. For instance, Graphene-based photovoltaic has demonstrated the possibility of improving energy conversion efficiency by over 20% compared to silicon solar cells. One of the emerging areas is the advancements in perovskite-graphene solar cells that are expected to have better efficiency and faster production at comparatively lower costs. In 2023, scientists created new perovskite solar cells with improved stability and efficiency by incorporating graphene into them, opening up new frontiers in thin-film flexible solar cells, particularly for use in wearable electronics and portable power. Graphene is also lightweight, which is very useful in several applications, including aviation and automotive industries, increasing the market growth. The graphene solar cell market has further potential because of the enhanced efficiency, durability, and flexibility that the material offers in the solar cell industry. For instance, graphene can enhance the efficiency of solar cells by 20% and is thus considered an essential material in producing new-generation solar cells. This is important because the installed solar power capacity in the world is expected to stand at more than 1. 2 terawatts by 2030, reflecting an increase in the market need for advanced solar cells.
