7 status of PV 2013 summary GERMANY - In Germany the total installed PV capacity is 35GWp (world wide ca. 120GWp); that corresponds to 5% electricity from PV -The Energy Turn Around in Germany has to be done collectively with all the alternative energies (good energy mix, smart-grid, storage) GENERAL - PV producers are at the moment in a crisis due to overcapacity; but new markets are fast created - c-si modules costs are around 0.5 /Wp; total turn-key PV systems for 1.50 /Wp >>> this gives translated ca. 10ct/kWh - 30 GW PV-market will move to 100 GW market in PV is for countries with plenty of sun the best electricity source to get independent (Hermann Scheer) Radovan Kopecek, Ceremonia de Lanzamiento Centro FONDAP en Energia Solar,

19 overall summary If the energy turn around with PV (in combination with other renewables) works in Germany, it works far better in Latin America and other southern places. PV electricity generation in 2013 can be done in Germany for 10ct/kWh. - higher yearly irradiation - stable irradiation during the year - more need for decentralized systems >> adapted solutions needed (e.g. desert module) >> effective solutions for storage needed (also micro-grids) >> good political and economical surroundings has to be established Radovan Kopecek, Ceremonia de Lanzamiento Centro FONDAP en Energia Solar,
