Germany to become the world leader of solar power

According to foreign media sources, the German economy minister Wolfe said recently that the country hopes to become a world leader in the field of solar energy, not only in the use of solar energy, but also in solar technology, although frequent cloud cover in northern Germany.
   
   But asked to northern Germany, located at latitude 52 degrees, a daily two-thirds of the time for the cloud cover, the minister said, do not necessarily have the best conditions for cheap solar panels energy utilization can become solar energy capital. The minister said in Berlin during the Cold War lost most industrial base, and now its full development of solar energy industry. Berlin concentrate large forces do photonics research, more than the rest of the country is much larger force.
   
   The minister said that they focused on solar energy for a long time, as the world's attention on climate change, which has great potential in Germany in the world are so. They want to become a heavyweight in the field of solar energy.Currently the German solar market growth rate of 25% and more, the industry is not before stopping for industrial development of the city has a special appeal. He expects the next 20 years of development will be more than 10 times now, thanks in part to attract investors and researchers plan.
   
   According to the law of the country in May to reduce solar support, so enthusiastic possible to eliminate the fear of investors in the country. The new German Energy Act (EEG) has maintained support for new energy sources. It was copied using a number of countries, the gist is: a guaranteed fixed price for solar investors, utility companies purchase electricity duty high tariffs.
   
   The bill helped Germany to become the world's largest solarpower producer and photonics technology country, half the world's solar electricity from Germany.Berlin in the field currently has 10,000 job, while 10 years ago, almost nothing.The Minister believes that the field in 2018 to turn 10 Fan.
   
   Berlin during division lost traditional industries, after the fall of the Berlin Wall, they did not simply recover, but the catch-up of new industrial areas, such as optoelectronics, in the field they are very creative. Germany 2007 installed capacity of 2.7 million kilowatts installed solar power, enough to provide electricity to 1 million households, almost doubled compared to 2006. Germany, about 14% of its electricity from new energy sources. By 2020 they want this figure reached 30%.
   
   Some local research institutions to join the Berlin Hahn - Meitner Institute, is studying film technology to cut costs. They will film material structure becomes lighter, can be installed on the wall like a more complex architecture.
