China's Solar Panel Industry Has Consistently Registered 25 Percent Growth in Exports for the Past 10 Years, and This Growth Rate is Expected to Continue in 2005

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c24194) has announced the addition of Solar Panels in China to their offering.

China's solar panel industry has consistently registered 25 percent growth in exports for the past 10 years, and this growth rate is expected to continue in 2005. At US$496 million, exports from January to October 2004 already increased 50 percent over the US$329 million worth of exports for the entire 2003.

The severe shortage of solar cells, the main component of solar panels, has limited Chinas production of solar panels. Suppliers, nevertheless, have found ways to deal with the shortage that have enabled them to turn out an overwhelming 150MW of solar panels in 2004 compared to a mere 13MW in 2003.
