Press Release Summary = RNCOS Research:(http://www.rncos.com/Report/IM017.htm) New
policies designed for the further growth of the photovoltaic sector of Europe to
ensure a regular and secure supply of the energy plus the reduction in emission of
greenhouse gases.

Press Release Body = RNCOS Research:(http://www.rncos.com/Report/IM017.htm) At
present, Silicon dominates about 99% of the solar cell production, out of which
approximately 80% correspond to chip technology, for PV terrestrial applications all
over the world.

Development of medium thickness polycrystalline ribbon silicon and other similar
silicon based materials is in the front line of the photovoltaic R&D. However, the
efforts on thin-film silicon technology need to be concerted on the improvement of
the quality of material by improving film crystalline along with thickness & growth
rate.

The latest approach in the development of high-tech thin silicon for PV is to bring
the two traditionally separate lines of research where one is chip-based while the
other one is based on the growth of silicon onto cost-effective substrates.

As per a recent market research report named, "Year 2010: Photovoltaic Industry and
European Union" published by RNCOS, "Further progress is required towards increasing
production while lowering feedstock costs with emphasis on researching of new growth
processes, which will result in cost-effective but acceptable quality silicon".

As per experts, "The current development will play a significant role in the
surfacing of a completely new technology with unique features, new limitations and
possibilities". As per the report, "PV is going to become the most vital source of
electricity for the European countries in the years to come".

A comprehensive analysis of the photovoltaic industry and its overall impact on the
European Union is provided in this report. Profiles of the key players in this
industry plus the strategies and technologies adopted by them are discussed in
detail. Besides this the report also covers a comprehensive analysis of EU in
regards to the use of PV cells for power generation and makes a projection till
2010.

This report is a must read for investors and entrepreneurs, as it mentions the main
countries that have development plans for PV industry and also provides a discussion
on the complete market dynamics, such as technology, segmentation and so on, of the
terrestrial PV sector.
