The Innovators Behind Solar’s Rise

Solar capacity is growing so rapidly that the International Energy Agency predicts within five years it will surpass coal as the biggest power source. Solar has advantages over wind and hydro: The sun shines most everywhere, and both industry and consumers are producers — fostering a “democratization” of power. Still, there are supply-chain, regulatory and other challenges. Explore the technology, the players and the road ahead. Recorded September 20, 2023.

The only solar panel and polysilicon pricing report that adheres to IOSCO reporting requirements.

The OPIS Solar Weekly Report is the first and only solar panel and polysilicon pricing report to follow the International Organization of Securities Commissions’ (IOSCO) requirements for fair and transparent pricing.
