Embed Size (px)

DESCRIPTION

This market report offers an incisive and reliable overview of the photovoltaic sector of CIS countries for the period 2013 ÷ 2018. Newly installed PV capacity in this region will exceed 1.6 GW in the next 2 years. The number of fully permitted and ready to build projects is promptly increasing. Rooftop market segment in many countries is not developed and forecasted to score significant growth in the near future. The report provides a complete picture of the market situation, dynamics, risks, current issues and future prospects. You will find 200 pages of valuable information in this unique in-depth analysis of the CIS countries photovoltaic market. With comprehensive market data this report brings clear and concise insights, to help investors, manufacturers and service providers in their decision making process. As 2012 and 2013 were challenging years for photovoltaic (solar PV) industry, the time for taking right decisions during 2014 and the next few years is limited. Fast changing market environment, requires relevant and accurate information.
