Made in Germany | Solar Technology as an Export Hit

The price of a barrel of Brent Crude oil from the North Sea has risen by 50 percent this year. That in turn raises the price of driving a car - and of manufacturing. So solar power is becoming relatively affordable.

German solar technology firms quintupled their sales abroad in the last three years, for an industry total of a billion euros in 2006. German photovoltaic companies have their eye on the European domestic market. But they are also rapidly expanding in the United States and Asia. The Solar Economy Association expects the photovoltaic market to expand by 20 percent a year for the next 15 years, creating many jobs in Germany. Klaus Enderle visited Solon, a photovoltaic company in Berlin that will be opening new production facilities next year. In Cooperation with the Handelsblatt.

@MisterWeed I agree dude quality does have its price but, I wouldn't say cars... Honda is cheap w/ good quality, reliability & lasts long. All cars have a tweaked lifespan.

@elchippe quality has its price. you can buy cheap shit and replace it often or buy high quality that is reliable and lasts very long. for example cars..

@CreativeCritisizm >> sure , but now Chinese begin to create their own technology and sometimes more advance but the quality stay poor

We sell German manefactured solar panels and having trialled every other alternative product, german technology came out as the most efficient.
