GLOBAL PV MARKETS: EMERGING ASIAN MARKETS – NEW HORIZONS
Summary
Asia is the global PV center
of gravity for both production
and deployment today and in
future. Last year,
approximately 70% of the
total global demand came
from Asia. Surging power
consumption, persistently
high levels of air pollution
and low PV system prices
have led national
governments across the
region to endorse incentive
policies designed to create a
favorable business
environment for solar PV.
Today, Asia's main markets
are China, India, and Japan,
but the next wave of demand
will be triggered from
countries like the Philippines,
Vietnam, Indonesia, Pakistan,
and Thailand. Presentations
feature legislative landscapes,
opportunities and a forecast
of market developments.

GLOBAL PV MARKETS: EMERGING AFRICAN MARKETS – THE AWAKENING GIANT
Summary
Surging power consumption
and exceptionally low PV
system prices have been
prompting national
governments across the
African continent to pursue
incentive policies designed to
create favorable business
environments for solar PV. In
this context, countries like
Nigeria, Ghana, Uganda and
Kenya are expected to drive
demand for on-grid solar PV
applications. Presentations
feature legislative
landscapes, opportunities
and a forecast of market
development.
