Germany - The German market for photovoltaic lay up to the yearly half far behind expectations of many dealers and installers. Due to a long bad weather period and continuously high prices for solar modules, approximately as much solar power could not be sold as planned up to the yearly half. "Stocks are full, the demand at the German photovoltaic market is restrained." says Daniel Koepf, General Manager at Spothunter.com. The market for large-scale installations in Germany is almost to succumbs come. Institutional and private investors put their activities due to a lower rate of return for this year on hold.

"A majority of the investments flows due to more attractive conditions into Spanish large-scale projects." says Koepf. The market for single family houses seems to be almost stabile.
