毫不奇怪,IMS調(diào)查估計最大的光伏組件廠商在2009年就是第一個太陽能、去年已經(jīng)裝運了1GW。市場研究公司說前十大模塊的生產(chǎn)商仍然是2008年報告的那些相同的上市公司,但是位置的排名已經(jīng)重新洗牌。
　　
　　IMS研究估計,光伏組件的發(fā)貨量都遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)高于他們在2009年估計的7.5GW設(shè)施量。發(fā)貨量超過裝配量，因為組件的數(shù)量要要供應(yīng)設(shè)施的配套的完成創(chuàng)下了記錄在最后一季度，在2010年的第一季度，歐洲市場蓬勃發(fā)展,如德國、意大利、法國、捷克共和國。
    網(wǎng)絡(luò)的迅速崛起薄膜太陽能領(lǐng)袖,過去一年的領(lǐng)袖,尚德,只有一處,然后再一次被尖銳的第三名。蒂娜太陽能是個著名的兩個地方,增加其攀爬近90%的年度裝運,根據(jù)相關(guān)的研究。
　　
　　然而,鋒利,三洋丟失的地方、京瓷相比,到2008年,第一次,模塊供應(yīng)商出售美國超過那些來自日本的供應(yīng)商。
　　
　　“2009年是令人難以置信的一年,PV模塊供應(yīng)商的十大上市公司的出貨量增長百分之七十五。這是一個了不起的結(jié)果看起來多么可憐的前景就在一年前,”山姆?威爾金森,研究分析師和相關(guān)研究的PV集團”。雖然許多其他人沒有分享這一成功,這項措施是可以說明這個光伏組件市場的增長遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過預(yù)期2009年,遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過了安裝。

No surprise in that IMS Research has said that the largest PV module manufacturer in 2009 by MW shipments was First Solar, having shipped over 1GW last year. The market research firm said that the top ten module producers were the same companies listed in its 2008 rankings report, though there was a shuffling in the positions.

IMS Research estimates that shipments of PV modules were far higher than their estimate of installations in 2009 of 7.5GW. Shipments exceeded installations due to the record amount of modules shipped in the final quarter of the year to serve installations completed in the first quarter of 2010 in booming European markets such as Germany, Italy, France and Czech Republic.

With the rapid rise of thin film leader First Solar, the previous year’s leader, Suntech, only fell one place, followed once again by Sharp in third. Trina Solar was noted for climbing two places, increasing its annual shipments by nearly 90%, according to IMS Research.

However, Sharp, Kyocera and Sanyo lost places compared to 2008 and for the first time, modules sold by US-based suppliers exceeded those from Japanese suppliers.

“2009 was an incredible year for PV module suppliers, with the top ten companies’ shipments growing by 75%. This is an amazing result given how poor the outlook had looked just over one year ago,” commented Sam Wilkinson, Research Analyst with IMS Research’s PV group. “Although many others did not share in this success, this measure alone is an indicator that the PV module market grew far more than had been expected in 2009, with shipments far exceeding installations.”
