Flat Glass Market Surges As Solar Energy Installations Reach New Heights: A Key Factor Shaping the Future of the Flat Glass Market in 2025

Which drivers are expected to have the greatest impact on the over the flat glass market's growth?
The growth of the flat glass market is predicted to be fuelled by the increasing number of solar energy installations. Solar energy, which refers to energy derived from the sun and converted into thermal or electrical energy, is the most abundant and cleanest renewable energy source available. Flat glass plays a crucial role in solar units where it facilitates the conversion of solar energy into electricity. In September 2024, as reported by the US-based Non-profit Solar Energy Industries Association, the U.S had already installed 6.1 GW by the first quarter of 2023, indicating a 47% increase from Q1 2022. In addition, by 2028, it's predicted that 28% of all new distributed solar capacity will be paired with storage, a significant increase from under 12% in 2023. Thus, the increasing number of solar energy installations boosts the expansion of the flat glass market.

What are the most significant trends transforming the flat glass market today?
Key players in the flat glass market are concentrating on product enhancements and invention of novel solutions to solidify their market standing. One such product is float glass, a variety of flat glass made through a specific process that entails the floating of liquefied glass on molten tin to yield a homogenous, level surface. Illustrating this, in September 2022, AGC Glass Europe, a company specialized in glass production based in Belgium, unveiled a new line of float glass that results in a carbon footprint reduction by 40%. This groundbreaking glass aims to generate less than 7 kg of CO2 per square meter for transparent glass with a 4 mm thickness, marking a noteworthy stride towards sustainability in the glass production realm. The recently introduced float glass line aims to curb carbon emissions during production, realizing a decrease of over 40%. This move is in line with AGC's wider scheme to boost sustainability in its manufacturing operations.
