The United States accounted for less than six per cent of global photovoltaic installations in 2010, but a new report believes 2011 will be a lot better.
Compiled by solar power developer Enfinity, the report is titled The U.S. PV Market in 2011 and was produced in association with GTM Research. It predicts the U.S. will become the focus of the PV industry in 2011.
There are three factors that Enfinity highlight to support its claim: high levels of exposure to the sun’s rays (insolation), land availability to support large PV installations and highest electricity demand in the world.
“All eyes are on the U.S. PV market in 2011,†said Rafael Dobrzynski, Enfinity’s CEO in the Americas.
“Being active in Europe as well as the Americas, we continually get questions about the U.S. market’s potential, demand ramp-up, and the reality of a national Feed-in-Tariff. Our white paper addresses these key issues as we delve into all these areas and provide valuable insights with hard numbers attached.â€
