Solar-cell production jumps 50% in 2007

There’s not much more to say than that really.

It comes from a report issued by the Environmental News Network.

“Production of photovoltaics (PV) jumped to 3,800 megawatts worldwide in 2007, up an estimated 50 percent over 2006,” says Jonathan G. Dorn, Staff Researcher at the Earth Policy Institute, in a recent release, “Solar Cell Production Jumps 50 Percent in 2007” .

“Growing by an impressive average of 48 percent each year since 2002, PV production has been doubling every two years, making it the world’s fastest-growing energy source.”
