    Recently, IHS, an international authoritative research institution, said that thanks to the strong photovoltaic support policies of China and Japan, the global photovoltaic industry maintained double-digit growth in 2014, and the photovoltaic industry is about to usher in a full recovery in 2015 - although this recovery looks fragile
    .

    What will be the direction of global photovoltaic industry technology development in 2015?

    1.
    Concentrating photovoltaic technology will usher in rapid growth

    IHS predicts that concentrated photovoltaic power generation (CPV) will maintain an average growth of 37% from 2015, and is expected to complete 250MW of installations by the end of the year
    .

    2.
    Grid-connected photovoltaic energy storage technology is rapidly applied

    Photovoltaic power generation systems are moving away from relatively simple one-way flow systems and large-scale traditional power generation systems, and gradually shifting
    to complex small-scale, distributed combinations.
    In 2015, grid-connected PV installations (combined with energy storage) are expected to more than triple to 775 MW
    .

    3.
    The market share of single solar monocrystalline silicon will expand

    Although monocrystalline silicon cell technology is still difficult to threaten the polycrystalline solar cell market in the short term, growth will remain stable
    thanks to the rapidly growing demand for high-efficiency solar products in the rooftop solar installation market.
    The market share of monocrystalline silicon cells will grow to 27% in 2015, an increase of 24%
    compared to 2014.

    4.
    The installation of single units is rapidly large-scaled

    In 2015, PV projects of more than 100kW will reach 15.
    7GW, a large increase
    from 13.
    2GW in 20154.
    These projects are mainly concentrated in Japan
    .
    In Japan, distributed photovoltaics account for nearly 70% of the share
    .
    Thanks to the market driven by net metering and the rise of third-party leasing models, the United States is also expected to complete more than 2.
    2GW of distributed photovoltaic projects
    in 2015.

    5.
    Three-phase string inverter technology will become the mainstream

    In 2015, the revenue of the three-phase string inverter market will reach 2.
    2 billion US dollars.

    It is estimated that three-phase string inverter shipments will reach 15GW in 2015, a year-on-year increase of 31%, and it is expected that there will be a shipment surge in some important photovoltaic markets, such as China and Japan, and the total shipment is expected to reach 7.
    6GW.
