Renaissance of European PV production - Solar Boom 2.0?
Once the German solar industry was world class. Then it collapsed. Recent developments in the East German "Solar Valley" indicate that the industry is now on the verge of a comeback.

Solar cells are to come from Bitterfeld, modules from Freiberg, from former solar sites in eastern Germany.
