For Voltec Solar and the IPVF, photovoltaics must become one of these major national industrial sectors and this is the objective stated by the France PV Industrie project which was the subject of a file submission in the Calls for Projects from ADEME for France 2030.
The goal is simple: to map out the PV module supply channels to the U.S. out to 2026 and beyond. French startup Holosolis, founded by innovation group EIT InnoEnergy, has planned to build a 5GW solar module assembly plant in France.
A simplified analysis concludes on the suitability of the PV manufacturing process today and indicates the opportunities for the net-zero transition in the future. While the focus is on the carbon impacts of the solar PV industry, the authors also identify other relevant aspects (such as circularity), laying the ground for a future research.
In 2022, global solar PV manufacturing capacity increased by over 70% to reach almost 450 GW, with China accounting for over 95% of new facilities throughout the supply chain. The latest IEA data indicate that current (2024) module manufacturing capacity in China exceeds 800 GW .
A goal of the strategy is to reach nearly 600 GW of installed solar photovoltaics (PV) capacity by 2030. While Europe is a pioneer in the definition of new policy requirements to ensure the circularity and sustainability of PV products, its manufacturing capabilities are limited.
Compared with other electricity sources, solar PV has one of the lowest life-cycle GHG emission levels per kilowatt hour generated. Nevertheless, PV presents great variability in terms of its carbon intensity in the manufacturing process, with some modules almost doubling the average.
