Overview
The market for PicoPV systems is constantly growing: More than 100 firms are offering PicoPV products in developing countries today[1] and new products are introduced almost daily[2]. Additionally, a fast growth is expected due to the fact, that a decrease of prices for solar components, such as solar panels and LED's is forecasted. With regard to the huge demand for mobile phones in developing countries, almost a solar boom is expected in order to recharge the mobile phones with additional applications. Furthermore, additional applications, such as refrigerators and small TV's will increase attractiveness of PicoPV systems.[2]
