Study Background
In this report BPA attempts to provide a candid view on the opportunities and challenges that
exist in the industry today. Its objective is to help organizations decide which of the many
opportunities they could focus on depending on their competences, skills and technology
platforms. BPA identifies the most attractive market from the perspective of potential
revenue, easy of technological challenges, complexity of the value/supply chain amongst
others.
BPA has chosen to evaluate the opportunities in this technology sector as many of the
materials (though not all) and fabrication techniques are similar to those used in the
worldwide printed circuit board (PCB) industry.
Much work has been carried to improve material properties, e.g. solar efficiency in the case
of Organic Photovoltaic (OPV) cells, and charge mobility in the case of semiconductor
materials. However the return on investment from improving the physical electrical and
chemical properties comes with the demonstration and realization of sub-assemblies and
products that are desirable to the consumer and retail environments in particular. In the
opinion of BPA this industry has some way to go before it meets a maturity level or a high
level of confidence in the various technologies promised for the realization of multi-billion
dollar industries.
A major objective of this report is to deliver to the reader a clear idea, through the ranking of
KPI, of the most attractive markets. These may not be the biggest or the most challenging
but the report will help the undecided which potential sections of the PE industry they should
focus upon.
