China intends to stake out a world leader position in the manufacture and use of solar energy(01/09/2009)
China’s new $2.70 per watt government solar incentive has delivered a strong stimulus to solar stocks. China’s stimulus program represents a 50% government participation in the cost of many solar projects. Clearly this changes the economics for solar companies with a footprint in China. This strong investment in solar power technology signals that China intends to stake out a position as the world leader in the manufacture, sale and use of so... [more]
Companies in the solar and wind industries are expected to be the big winners from the Waxman-Markey bill(29/05/2009)
The U.S. Congress is nearing the passage of the Waxman-Markey bill that will produce winners and losers in the utility and energy sectors. Companies in the solar and wind industries are expected to be the big winners when the legislation is completed. The bill proposes to require utilities to obtain 6% of their power from renewable sources by 2012 and 20% by 2020. This is expected to accelerate demand for solar farms and solar technologies in ...
