Industry guides
RENI is a series of industry guides covering the
key topics in the PV industry. Most of them are
published annually at significant PV events.
After their launch, they are distribut ed to the target
group worldwide and presented at over 30 trade
shows throughout the year, in Europe, USA
and Asia.
These publications are specifically aimed
at the decision makers of the PV industry. They also
serve as a means of attracting investors and
politicians.
An industry guide from RENI includes:
a topical market overview and
presentation of the companies, products
and services.

Background
As the importance of the PV power plants market
increases worldwide, the demand for professionally
prepared information is growing in parallel.
The “PV Power Plants” Industry Guide is the
unique industry guide with a clear focus on
large-scale PV plants. It provides politicians,
investors and decision makers with the latest
know-how and provides an overview of companies
working in the area of PV power plants.

The solar power station in
Senftenberg (Germany) has a total

around 50,000 homes.
Module prices are expected to drop by
another 20 to 29 percent in 2012. and the
prices of inverters are also in decline,
with a drop of 15 percent calculated by
market research company IMs research.
Photovoltaics is becoming increasingly
inexpensive, a development that is fuelling
the boom in solar power plants and
smaller-scale rooftop systems alike. In
contrast, the prices for electricity from
conventional power plants are climbing.
this is making the solar farm market
segment progressively more lucrative for
financially strong investors – even despite
tumbling feed-in tariffs. Photovoltaics
offers a profitable, long-term investment
with comparatively low risk.
