Germany is one of the world’s largest producers of wind turbines after Denmark and China. The export rate of German manufacturers and suppliers of wind power stations was more than 70 percent in early 2007 according to the German Wind Energy Association. Worldwide market share of German wind companies is about one third. (Source: www.oem-ag.at) Germany is the world’s second largest producer of photovoltaic systems. With a production capacity of approx. 370 MW annually, German manufacturers supply about 34 percent of the global market for photovoltaic systems (2007 figures). (Source: www.solaranlagen-portal.
