PV Incentive Programs - Country Profiles
Yole Development, Feb 2010, Pages: 150
Understand the details and impact of PV installation incentive programs in 25 countries.
Market trends
With virtually unlimited potential, photovoltaic (PV) technology is the most promising source of electricity for the future.
Driven by carbon concerns, desire for energy independence and limited oil and gas production, many governments want to increase the share of electricity produced by solar panels. However, photovoltaic electricity production remains one of the most expensive.
An effective way to increase PV electricity production is to reduce the cost through targeted incentives. In the last ten years a number of government sponsored incentive programs have been established.
Japan and Germany led the way and each encountered tremendous success. The demand for solar panels experienced in recent years in those countries has been a direct result of their incentive programs.
When a country decides to promote PV energy with incentives it will result in: immediate investment opportunities; creation of thousands of jobs; and shipping of solar products in substantial volumes.
But, incentive programs are complex and it is crucial for everyone involved to have a clear picture of the situation to make informed choices.
