Photovoltaic solar aluminum profiles Aluminum profiles are recognized as an eco-friendly and highly durable material. Due to their lightweight, corrosion resistance, excellent thermal conductivity, high strength, and ease of transportation and installation, they are commonly used in the manufacturing of brackets and frames for photovoltaic (PV) modules. This specific type of aluminum profile, widely utilized in the solar energy sector, is referred to as photovoltaic aluminum profiles. In an era where the scarcity of non-renewable energy sources like coal and oil poses significant challenges to global economic development, more countries are implementing "Solar Initiatives" to harness solar energy resources and seek new drivers for economic growth. Solar energy photovoltaics are one of the seven key emerging industries prioritized for development in our country. The rapid growth in the photovoltaic power generation sector, both in China and internationally, has significantly increased the demand for aluminum profiles used in solar modules. China holds the largest installed capacity for photovoltaic power globally, with cumulative installed capacity reaching 39,261 MW in 2022, indicating a sustained growth trend. Analyzing the industrial chain: the upstream includes the production of aluminum metal, mainly involving bauxite, alumina, and electrolytic aluminum; the midstream focuses on processes like extrusion, aging, and surface treatment to manufacture industrial aluminum profiles for photovoltaics; while the downstream involves precision processing, turning aluminum profiles into photovoltaic frames and brackets. As of 2022, the CR5 of China’s photovoltaic frame industry reached 48%, with leading enterprises capturing nearly half of the market share. Photovoltaic aluminum alloy profiles are primarily used as frames for solar panels, providing essential support. They serve to fix and seal the solar cell components, enhance structural strength, and facilitate transportation and installation. Aluminum profiles account for approximately 90% of photovoltaic modules, constituting about 8-9% of total costs. Their replacement is challenging, but demand will continue to grow alongside the expansion of the renewable energy photovoltaic sector. More countries are recognizing the importance of developing the photovoltaic industry, leading to a rising demand for photovoltaic aluminum profiles.
