Through the mid-'90s, the U.S. was the supply-side leader in terms of photovoltaic shipments. Currently, the U.S. has a 6% share of global shipments. The first part of this presentation analyzes how the U.S. lost share, the U.S.' current state of technology manufacturing and what can be done to improve its manufacturing footprint.

Part two of the webcast addresses the Californian downstream market, its historical development and future prospects. A close look is being taken at the existing incentive programs and political framework that have paved the way for California's solar success, thus far. A comparison between the trail-blazing state and another leading U.S. solar state is also being made. Finally, the current incentive mechanisms are being evaluated to cast light on future growth opportunities.
