According to Mr. Pichel, “2015 has been a volatile year for solar. The macro challenges in China and the steep decline in the price of oil has caused turmoil in energy markets and the markets overall. Despite the tumult, fundamental demand for solar in the U.S. and internationally remains strong. As costs systematically step down, markets are steadily transitioning from policy-dependence to grid parity.”
Mr. Shen stated, “The volatility, in our view, presents opportunities for investors. We believe our symposium will enable investors to deeply explore the key issues facing the market today, including (1) Demand trends abroad and in the U.S. especially in 2017 and beyond; (2) Regulatory changes, including the potential for an ITC extension or the addition of commence construction language; (3) Industry utilization and pricing; and (4) The impact lower yieldco valuations may have on solar growth prospects. The symposium will also feature select emerging private solar companies.”
We believe this event will enable participants to efficiently meet companies throughout the entire solar value chain – polysilicon, wafer, cell, module, downstream developers, private companies, and industry experts – in one of the most important solar markets in the world.
