Market forecast: Less than one third of PV producers will survive solar shake-out in 2013

11.01.2013: US market research company IHS iSuppli predicts that the current consolidation of the world solar industry will lead to major losses among the around 500 global players still active in 2012. According to the company, around 150 companies will survive the solar shake-out. “Most upstream PV supply operations will simply cease to exist, rather than being acquired by other companies,” says IHS. It also predicts that especially Chinese integrated producers are at risk in 2013. However, IHS notes that low-cost players will play a major role in the global market also in the current year.
