This is a list of notable photovoltaics (PV) companies. Grid-connected solar photovoltaics (PV) is the fastest growing energy technology in the world, with 50% annual increases in cumulative installed capacity in 2006 and 2007, to an estimated 7.7 GW. This translates into 1.5 million homes with rooftop photovoltaics feeding into the electricity grid worldwide.〔REN21 (2008). (Renewables 2007 Global Status Report (PDF) ) p. 6.〕 During 2007, investment in new solar photovoltaic manufacturing facilities was strong in Europe, Japan, China, Taiwan and the United States, with many new operations reported.〔REN21 (2008). (Renewables 2007 Global Status Report (PDF) ) p. 19.〕 Since October 2009, the Canadian province of Ontario has had vast success with the implementation of their feed-in tariff incentive for grid-connected solar systems. Ontario is currently leading the way in North America with this comprehensive renewable energy incentive.〔() Ontario Power Authority FIT success press release, March 10, 2010〕 Photovoltaics companies include PV capital equipment producers, cell manufacturers, panel manufacturers and installers. The list does not include silicon manufacturing companies. ==Photovoltaic manufacturers== 1 Estimated production/capacity〔 2 Plant closed in 2009.〔(BP Solar closes its Spanish factories )〕 3 Production greater than capacity due to closing of some production lines in mid-year. 4 Filed for bankruptcy on Aug 15, 2011〔(Evergreen Solar Seeks Bankruptcy )〕 According to EnergyTrend, the 2011 Global Top Ten Polysilicon, Solar Cell and Solar Module Manufacturers by capacity are found in countries including People's Republic of China, United States, Taiwan, Germany, Japan, and Korea. In 2011, the global top ten polysilicon makers by capacity are as follows, GCL, Hemlock, OCI, Wacker, LDK, REC, MEMC/SunEdison, Tokuyama, LCY and Woongjin, represented by People's Republic of China, United States, Taiwan, Germany, Japan and South Korea. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of photovoltaics companies」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
