BUILDIING PV MARKETS IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD

For the PV services industry, the developing world represents an enormous new business opportunity.

CHINA ENERGIES CHALLENGE
Despite economic and political crises, China People's Republic is still one of the world's fastest growing regions. Chinese industrial production in July 2003 was 16.5% higher than in the year before. For 2003 a GDP growth of 8% is expected. Direct foreign investment in China is very high and this supports the economic growth.

About 70% of 1.2 billion people live in rural areas in China . In spite of the rapid growth of China 's national economy in recent decades, energy problems still have a very real impact on economic and environmental development, especially in rural areas. In order to mitigate the adverse impact of coal burning to the regional and global environment, the Chinese Government has adopted vigorous measures to develop renewable energy technologies.

China has abundant solar energy resources. More than two-third of China receives an annual total insulation that exceeds 5GJ/m 2 with more than 2,200 hours of sunshine a year. Hence, utilization of solar energy becomes a strategic decision in rational use of energy as well as environmental protection. Up to now, PV in China has been playing a significant role in improving people's living conditions and will make more contribution to sustainable development in the 21 st century.
