     Compared with 2008, do you expect growth in the global market volume of newly installed PV power in 2009? Based on economic and incentive conditions, I think the global market will be down slightly from 2008. Moreover, since module prices will decline substantially, I think global value of shipments will be down even more significantly. Here in the U.S. expected demand seems to be weighted to the second half of the year, and if that demand doesn't materialize then there will be a lot of disappointments in 2009.

    Barry Cinnamon will speak at The Solar Future conference, 26 May 2009
