PV Status Report 2006: Research, Solar Cell Production and Market Implementation of Photovoltaics

The Fifth Edition of the "PV Status Report" tries to give an overview about current activities regarding Research, Manufacturing and Market Implementation. Not every country and development is treated with the same attention, but this would go beyond the scope of this report. Hopefully, this report will be a useful overview about the situation world-wide. The opinion given in this report is based on the current information available to the author, and does not reflect the opinion of the European Commission.
