NanoMarkets LC’s Report “CIGS Photovoltaics Market Opportunities 2011” is now available at ReportsnReports.com.

Dallas, TX -- (SBWire) -- 06/20/2011 --CIGS Photovoltaics Market Opportunities 2011 - In recent years, CIGS has become a collection of contradictions. While it has achieved the highest conversion efficiency among the thin-films, its progress toward high volumes has been sluggish. And while the volume growth of leading companies has been well behind the level of expectations that CdTe has set, dozens of small companies continue to enter the CIGS market, especially in China and Taiwan. Finally, while flexible CIGS PV-especially in the form of BIPV-is widely considered the path for success, there are still concerns about the durability of such flexible products given CIGS' sensitivity to moisture.
