Digital silver strategy during solar industry expansion
Solar panel manufacturing heavily relies on silver, making renewable energy growth a strong structural demand driver.
Despite ongoing substitution efforts using copper, the solar sector continues to depend heavily on silver for photovoltaic efficiency. Annual consumption remains close to 194 million ounces, underscoring its indispensable role in renewable energy manufacturing. In 2026, each 450-watt solar module requires roughly $17 worth of silver paste. This sustained clean-energy demand establishes a structural support base, reinforcing digital silver’s long-term investment proposition.
