PUBLIC APPEARANCES AND PUBLICATIONS FROM OUR WORLD REKNOWN EXPERTS

IN DEPTH EARLY STAGE EVALUATION FOR REGIONAL MANUFACTURING IN SILICON AND PV SECTORS

• Participation in strong-growth market: PV and silicon markets

are expected to grow with double-digit CAGRs over the foreseeable future. Should you participate?

• Technology selection: What is the right technology under

consideration of future roadmaps and market needs?

• Socio-economic impact: How can a local PV manufacturing

cluster help in developing selected regions? What are possible spill-over effects and the resulting costs & benefits for society?

• Local power markets: Diversification of power supply, energy

security, reduction of fossil-fuel imports or offsetting of local

• resources. Tell me about the value?
• Risk mitigation: A diligent feasibility study decreases the risk for

misallocation of capital. Sunk costs for PV manufacturing can be significant!
