Solar - Photovoltaic (PV) and Solar thermal

The solar industry is at a major breakthrough point and has the potential to decisively contribute to global energy provision. But there is significant potential to optimize cost savings through rapid exploitation of the technological advantages, through the integration of the value and supply chains, through the exploitation of economies of scale and through the selection of the right production sites. The industry is at the cusp of a consolidation wave.

• Solar technologies - Which shall prevail and with whom should one cooperate?
• Consolidation in the PV industry - How can I benefit from it? How can I identify the right strategic investor? What is the right timing for an acquisition or divestment?
