1997 to 2017, Twenty Years of PV Shipments
In the twenty years from 1997 to 2017, annual shipments of PV technologies have grown from 114.1-MWp in 1997 to over 90-GWp in 2017 for a cumulative total since 1974 of 377-GWp. Annual shipments of slightly over 114.1-MWp may seem quaint and trivial by today’s multi-gigawatt standards, but it marked a turning point in the industry. 1997 was the first year that the industry shipped over 100-MWp. This is also the period of Japan’s residential rooftop subsidy, US Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) and Germany’s 100,000 solar roof program. This presentation will cover this historic period of PV industry growth while highlighting differences between the industry of 1997 with that of the industry in 2017.
