The Building-Integrated Photovoltaics Markets 2009 and Beyond report analyzes and quantifies the current and future markets for BIPV products. These products have traditionally consisted mostly of solar panels designed to lie flush and appear unobtrusive on a structure. But the BIPV market has changed in the past year or so, with exciting new products that incorporate PV cells into actual building materials like siding, windows, and roofing shingles.

Tin is a vital component of the transparent conductive electrodes in thin-film PV (TFPV) cells, but its use is often overshadowed by that of indium, which is much more costly. Tin is used along with indium in indium tin oxide (ITO) and also without indium as tin oxide, which is frequently doped with other materials. ITO has been falling out of favor for TFPV electrodes over the past decade but still accounts for roughly one-third of the market. Tin oxide is one of two major alternative TCOs gaining market share for TFPV electrodes (the other being zinc oxide, similarly doped with other materials). Tin oxide's growing penetration within the TFPV market is mainly due to two factors: a trend of substitution for ITO in amorphous silicon (a-Si) PV and the growth of CdTe PV, which almost universally uses tin oxide.
