    WisolPro said in a report that by 2022, global demand for PERC batteries (passivated emitter rear contact cells) will reach 158 GW, up from 52 GW in 2018, while usable capacity will reach up to 168 GW, up from 64 GW
    in 2018.

    In its analysis, the company further estimated that PERC's market share growth would reach a high level in 2022 and then level off
    .
    At the same time, P-type PERC technology is likely to replace p-type polycrystalline technology
    .

    According to WisolPro, P-type multifunctional batteries will all but disappear
    from the market by 2022.
    Other techniques, such as heterojunction (HJT) or n-type PERT, will be largely unaffected
    by this development.

    China leads the way

    According to the report, Chinese manufacturers play a leading role
    in this development.
    Tongwei, for example, is increasing its PERC production from 300 MW in 2017 to 16 GW
    in 2020.

    If this prediction is correct, Tongwei will overtake JinkoSolar and Hanwha
    in this area.
    In 2017, JinkoSolar produced 2.
    5 GW of PERC cells, while Hanwha shipped more than
    4 GW.

    According to WisolPro's estimates, the two companies will each exceed 10 GW
    of production levels in 2020.
    While these three companies produced the highest volumes and saw the largest growth in this segment, other battery producers also saw growth, albeit at a relatively slower
    pace, in the PERC segment.

    WisolPro said that after the market share of p-type multifunctional batteries gradually decreases in 2022 and the growth level of PERC declines, the latter technology will account for nearly 70%
    of the total solar cell market.
    Thin-film, n-type PERT and HJT technologies will also continue to strengthen their market share through 2022, but not as well as PERC cells
    .
