Summary: | The book describes the industrial revolution associated with the implementation of electric power generation by photovoltaics (PV). The book's editor and contributing authors are among the leading pioneers in PV from its industrial birth in 1954 all the way up to the stormy developments during the first decade of the new century. The book describes the dramatic events in industry between 2009 and 2013 and puts all this into perspective. It concludes that solar power is yet to strengthen its role in technology and in mainstream of the world's economy. |
