Solar Energy Stocks continue to attract investors since last week’s reports of surging installation in Germany and the U.K. coupled with China’s plans to double total capacity this year are boosting demand for solar panels.
JinkoSolar announced earlier today that the 18 MW project, developed by China Guangdong Nuclear Solar Energy Development Co., Ltd., is now connected to the grid. The solar power plant covers an area of 400,000 square meters of which JinkoSolar provided all 76,000 modules for the installation.
Deutsche Bank analysts predicted that a strong fourth quarter in Germany, together with strong demand in the U.S. and Italy, would benefit the solar sector. Indications show that inventory levels are now at record lows and that record December shipments may create a sense of rush among installers in the first half of 2012.
Demand from both growing markets in China and India could also top expectations while U.S. installers stock up on solar panels before an import duty could be put into effect.
