Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/hds64f/pv_pricing) has announced the addition of the "Global PV Pricing Outlook 2014-2017" report to their offering.

This detailed report provides current, near-term, and long-term pricing outlooks for PV polysilicon, wafers, cells and modules through 2017. It also examines module pricing trends in the major PV end-markets, including the U.S., EU, Japan, China and Latin America, as well as detailed analysis of key pricing drivers including:

- Supplier Costs

- Product / Inventory Dynamics

- Capacity Dynamics

- Geopolitical Factors

- Incentive Levels / Power Pricing

- Downstream Preference

In 2013, the PV supply chain began to stabilize, due in part to robust demand growth, capacity retirements and mothballing by uncompetitive firms, trade conflicts, and a general focus by suppliers on margins over sales growth. As a result, global PV prices will increase nine percent next year.

Japan and China will continue to grow the end-market, and prices will firm up across the value chain through at least the first half of 2014. Looking into 2015 and beyond, module pricing will resume its long downward trajectory, eventually hitting $.50/W for tier-1 Chinese modules in the base forecast.

Scope of the Report

- Current, near-term, and long-term pricing outlook for PV polysilicon, wafers, cells, and modules.

- Regional module pricing for key markets, including U.S., Japan, China, EU and India.

- Commentary on pricing levels for individual suppliers, product and technology trends.

- Comprehensive dataset of historical and forecasted pricing in Excel format.
