Abstract
NOT ONLY HAS THE USA EXTENDED THE ITC (FEDERAL TAX INCENTIVE) FOR 8 YEARS AND REMOVED THE UTILITY EXEMPTION SO THAT UTILITIES CAN NOW PARTICIPATE (SEE FULL STEAM AHEAD FOR SOLAR PV IN US HOMES, PAGE 58), BUT OTHER COUNTRIES ARE TAKING THEIR OWN SIGNIFICANT STEPS TO BOOST SOLAR. IS THE TIME RIGHT FOR THE PHOTOVOLTAIC (PV) INDUSTRY - WITH ITS TECHNOLOGIES STILL A SMALL PART OF THE GLOBAL ENERGY MIX - TO SHOW FURTHER DRAMATIC GROWTH? OR WILL THE FINANCIAL CRISIS PROVE DIFFICULT TO RIDE OUT IN THE NEAR TERM?
