Top Solar Power Industry Trends for 2015

All of the signs point to a strengthening recovery of the solar industry in 2015 even if the recovery itself remains incredibly fragile. Policy support will continue to be key, and demand still will be highly concentrated in a handful of countries, presenting significant risk. Nonetheless, the rapid price declines seen by the industry has opened up solar to an enormous number of countries around the world, with several new business models emerging in the post-FiT world. More than 40 countries globally will install at least 100 megawatts of new solar PV capacity in 2015, signaling the true entry of solar into traditional energy generation.
