The EPO’s new technology insight report analyses five decades of trends regarding more than 30 technologies across four areas: photovoltaic materials, photovoltaic devices, the management of these devices, and application areas, based on publicly available patent information from the EPO’s worldwide patent databases. In this presentation, we will provide an overview of the underlying methodology and present interesting results. We will also give a review of related activities and offering of the EPO’s Observatory on Patents and Technology.
