In the tech world, big data means opportunity. For solar, it’s no different.
With solar securitization dominating the news, it’s hard to imagine that only a few years ago, the PV industry experienced a major upheaval on its way to maturity.

With PV panel prices now projected to increase in 2014, we may be seeing the leveling of the market.
