1 Solar Markets Worldwide today and tomorrow Overview The world PV market yesterday and today First German Conference Solar Energy in Korea NH Hotel, Munich-Dornach, June, 11th 8 in Munich, Germany Financial engineering with rate-based incentives Development of PV 199 : Cost and Performance How can you describe and analyse a PV system? From a rate-based incentive to a grid parity PV market Thomas Nordmann CEO TNC Consulting AG CH-873 Erlenbach Switzerland nordmann@tnc.ch 1 PV comparisons between Korea and Germany Conclusions 1 PV module production worldwide Market development Outlook (EPIA 1/7) Production/Year [MWp] ' Quelle: Report IEA-PVPS T1 1:6 3 PV global turnover 6 ca. 1.

An annual growth rate beyond 3% has been achieved. Even conservative outlooks show a similar growthrate for the future. Tuesday The dramatic growth of the market is achieved only been a few front-runner countries. Germany has taken the lead ahead of Japan with the concept of rate-based incentives. Wednesday The cost of installed PV capacity has been dramatically reduced since 199 by 6%. Good PV installations need modules and inverters with good efficiency, high stabile performance ratio and low investments in!/w Conclusions Thursday The next strategic target of the PV industry is to establish grid parity for private utility customers. With a liberalised electricity market PV becomes a self-running market and no longer policy driven industry. Friday The comparison between the PV environment in Germany and Korea shows similarities. The success of the Korea high-tec industry in the electronic sector is the key element to build up an own successful PV industry. Saturday The key element for the German successful PV industry is the solid established home market and its close interaction between customers and the industry Conclusions Sunday PV is a globalised business today! Successful trade relations are needed for fast PV industry development worldwide. A sustainable relation between supplier and customer, demand and supply is mandatory. If South Korea is establishing similar environment as Germany, South Korea becomes the new front-runner! 3 3
