The Vietnam Tellurium Market is projected to witness mixed growth rate patterns during 2025 to 2029. Growth accelerates to 13.71% in 2028, following an initial rate of 11.27%, before easing to 12.82% at the end of the period.

The Tellurium market in Vietnam is projected to grow at a high growth rate of 13.23% by 2027, within the Asia region led by China, along with other countries like India, Japan, Australia and South Korea, collectively shaping a dynamic and evolving market environment driven by innovation and increasing adoption of emerging technologies.

The Vietnam Tellurium market is witnessing increased demand, primarily from the electronics and photovoltaic industries. Tellurium is a key component in the production of cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin-film solar cells, which are gaining popularity as an alternative to traditional silicon-based solar cells. The growing emphasis on renewable energy sources is driving the demand for Tellurium in the photovoltaic sector. However, the limited availability of Tellurium as a byproduct of certain metal refining processes poses challenges to its supply chain and may affect market growth.
The Vietnam Tellurium market is driven by its applications in the solar energy sector. Tellurium is a key component in cadmium telluride (CdTe) photovoltaic cells. As the demand for renewable energy sources, particularly solar power, grows globally and in Vietnam, the need for tellurium for solar panel production remains a significant driver.
The Vietnam Tellurium market encounters a set of challenges that can impede its development. One significant challenge is the scarcity of tellurium resources globally, which can lead to supply shortages and price volatility. This can affect the cost structure and profitability of tellurium-related industries in Vietnam. Moreover, as tellurium is a byproduct of other mining processes, fluctuations in primary resource mining can directly impact tellurium availability. The market is also influenced by technological advancements and evolving demand in the electronics and photovoltaic industries, which may necessitate adaptation and innovation from market players. To tackle these challenges, companies in this sector should explore recycling and recovery methods, reduce dependence on primary resource mining, and diversify their product applications to secure their positions in the market.
The Tellurium Market in Vietnam has experienced the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in disruptions in production and distribution. Market participants are anticipated to focus on risk management, explore new applications, and invest in technological advancements. The recovery of the market will depend on the resumption of industrial activities and the adoption of tellurium in emerging sectors. Companies in this sector are likely to reassess their supply chain strategies and leverage digital platforms for business continuity in the post-pandemic era.
Tellurium has emerged as an essential element in different applications, including solar cells, thermoelectric applications, metallurgy, and alloys. The demand for Tellurium is increasing globally, including in Vietnam. The key players in this market are Japan Tellurium QUTI, and China Minmetals Non-Ferrous Metals Co. Ltd.
