Top-ten PV markets in 2011
Italy's level of PV installations soared from 2.3 GW in 2010 to 9.3 GW last year, according to figures collected by EPIA, making it the largest single market. But 2012 will be a different story, and the Italian market may shrink to only 3 GW. The German market is likely to be flat at best, while installations in the UK could also shrink fast after a boom created by generous tariff support. The fastest-growing markets in 2012 are likely to be China and the US. Data: EPIA.
