According to EPIA (the European Photovoltaic Industry Association) released data show that in 2007 the global PV modules and systems installed capacity of the new 2249 MWp, up 40.74 percent year-on-year growth of the global total installed capacity of photovoltaic components for the 9100 MWp, with the Than the growth rate of 32.83 percent, from 2000 to 2007, the total installed capacity of a compound annual growth rate reached 30.83 percent, the global PV industry output value reached 17.2 billion U.S. dollars, a growth momentum remained stable and rapid.
The 2007 European photovoltaic system installed capacity of the new 1529 MWp, the proportion of the world add up to 68 percent capacity, additional capacity for growth of 54.44 percent; Europe has a total installed capacity of 4500 MWp, the same period last year Growth of 51.46 percent of the world's total installed capacity of 50 percent compound annual growth rate of 57.4 percent, exceeding the global nearly 27.1 percentage points, like the global PV industry has become the focus of the development field.
PV systems installed from the market structure, in Europe have also maintained absolute leading edge, in 2007 the European photovoltaic installed capacity of the market accounted for 70 percent of the world; Germany is Europe's largest consumer market photovoltaic products, the new 2007 The installed capacity by 1328 MWp, an increase of 38 percent, accounting for the global PV systems add capacity 47 percent, followed by Spain, to 517.27 MWp of the additional capacity of the world occupy the first two, up to an astonishing The 465.6 percent; In addition, the U.S. market but also significantly, 07 additional capacity of 220 MWp, year-on-year increase of over 57 percent year-on-year decline in the Japanese market by 23% and the market performance of the weakness.
