OK, for those of you interested in the bottom line of solar production this year (and not just photovoltaics), please look at the free download from the Prometheus Institute. Consider that photovoltaics have seen 20% growth in installed modules over the past year in the US alone–not too bad!
But wait! That’s not all; for those of your interested in the progress of the global purified silicon shortage, and how soon we should expect to overcome the shortage, read the report on silicon.
Note that I’ve replaced Monkeysign’s blog link in the sidebar with that of the Prometheus Institute. If you have the funds available and are interested in the progress of the solar industry, I would recommend getting a subscription to their monthly report, PVNews. This is a gem of a trade journal, and digests important progress into manageable numbers for discussions with friends and colleagues.
