Increasing Optimism for 2012

The market research firm is now also more optimistic about the mid-term future for the PV industry and has also raised its projections for 2012. “Despite many still predicting doom and gloom, our latest research, which analysed more than 60 downstream markets and surveys hundreds of participants through the industry and supply chain, presents a very different picture. The decision by the Chinese Government to introduce a national FIT to boost flagging demand, as well as a diversifying global market and the introduction of new incentive schemes globally presents a much more optimistic, but still very challenging future for the industry”, concluded Sharma.
