毫不奇怪,IMS调查估计最大的光伏组件厂商在2009年就是第一个太阳能、去年已经装运了1GW。市场研究公司说前十大模块的生产商仍然是2008年报告的那些相同的上市公司,但是位置的排名已经重新洗牌。
IMS研究估计,光伏组件的发货量都远远高于他们在2009年估计的7.5GW设施量。发货量超过装配量，因为组件的数量要要供应设施的配套的完成创下了记录在最后一季度，在2010年的第一季度，欧洲市场蓬勃发展,如德国、意大利、法国、捷克共和国。
网络的迅速崛起薄膜太阳能领袖,过去一年的领袖,尚德,只有一处,然后再一次被尖锐的第三名。蒂娜太阳能是个著名的两个地方,增加其攀爬近90%的年度装运,根据相关的研究。
然而,锋利,三洋丢失的地方、京瓷相比,到2008年,第一次,模块供应商出售美国超过那些来自日本的供应商。
“2009年是令人难以置信的一年,PV模块供应商的十大上市公司的出货量增长百分之七十五。这是一个了不起的结果看起来多么可怜的前景就在一年前,”山姆·威尔金森,研究分析师和相关研究的PV集团”。虽然许多其他人没有分享这一成功,这项措施是可以说明这个光伏组件市场的增长远远超过预期2009年,远远超过了安装。
No surprise in that IMS Research has said that the largest PV module manufacturer in 2009 by MW shipments was First Solar, having shipped over 1GW last year. The market research firm said that the top ten module producers were the same companies listed in its 2008 rankings report, though there was a shuffling in the positions.
IMS Research estimates that shipments of PV modules were far higher than their estimate of installations in 2009 of 7.5GW. Shipments exceeded installations due to the record amount of modules shipped in the final quarter of the year to serve installations completed in the first quarter of 2010 in booming European markets such as Germany, Italy, France and Czech Republic.
With the rapid rise of thin film leader First Solar, the previous year’s leader, Suntech, only fell one place, followed once again by Sharp in third. Trina Solar was noted for climbing two places, increasing its annual shipments by nearly 90%, according to IMS Research.
However, Sharp, Kyocera and Sanyo lost places compared to 2008 and for the first time, modules sold by US-based suppliers exceeded those from Japanese suppliers.
“2009 was an incredible year for PV module suppliers, with the top ten companies’ shipments growing by 75%. This is an amazing result given how poor the outlook had looked just over one year ago,” commented Sam Wilkinson, Research Analyst with IMS Research’s PV group. “Although many others did not share in this success, this measure alone is an indicator that the PV module market grew far more than had been expected in 2009, with shipments far exceeding installations.”
