Introduction

This new report analyses the global SPV market, the market drivers and the key components for future growth and development. The past year and a half was characterised by downstream acquisitions. Solar manufacturers acquired project developers and project pipelines. Most notable of which was First Solar’s acquisition of NextLight, a major renewable energy developer with a pipeline of 1.1 GW of utility scale PV projects. Manufacturers are slowly moving their operations overseas to cheaper markets, but often keep an assembly facility in major markets because of their low labour costs. Big oil incumbents seem to be giving up on Solar with BP no longer manufacturing solar cells, except through joint ventures or by outsourcing contracts, and Shell having sold its assets in 2006.

Research and Analysis highlights

NRG expects 2011 will be another high growth year for the American, Chinese, India, Italian and French markets with resurgence in the Japanese market, due to generous subsidies and strong political will. Small markets, like Slovakia, that have generous feed-in tariffs may do well. Grid-connected projects will experience strong growth.
