"Situated at the heart of Europe, Germany is the world’s strongest photovoltaic (PV) market. In fact, Germany converts more solar energy into electricity than any other country. With 75 percent of European cell production capacity and 60 percent of European module production capacity in 2010, Germany is Europe’s leading PV manufacturer. In many other market segments, such as inverter production, Germany is the largest producer worldwide." (Quoted from paper)
