By the end of 2012, the worldwide installed photovoltaic electricity generation capacity exceeded 100 GW. It has the potential to increase 2.5 fold within the next 5 years according to the latest Renewable Energy Midterm Market Outlook of the IEA. These findings show that PV is on the right track to become a major electricity source in the coming years.
The EU PVSEC is the largest international Conference for Photovoltaic research, technologies and applications, and at the same time one of the top international PV Industry Exhibitions.
