Latest Feature (PREMIUM CONTENT)The call of sirens: Is India really a good solar market?
No doubt the Indian solar market has strong fundamentals; irradiation is very high, power is expensive and in short supply and solar is getting cheaper. In addition, there are now a host of new policies promising upwards of 4GW of new solar. On the other hand, there are only a few players really enjoying themselves. Tier 1 Chinese module manufacturers find price pressures too high – as do many EPCs. Project developers still face difficulties in getting their projects financed. The question is; does anyone earn any money? The answer is no, but those who are ready to try new approaches will do so in future, according to Tobias Engelmeier, founder and managing director of Bridge to India.
