The growth of solar power industries worldwide has been rapidly accelerated by the growth of the solar market in China. Chinese-produced photovoltaic cells have made the construction of new solar power projects much cheaper than in previous years. Domestic solar projects have also been heavily subsidized by the Chinese government, allowing for China''s solar energy capacity to dramatically soar. As a result, they have become the leading country for solar energy, passing Germany''s capacity in 20
