NEW YORK, Jan. 12 /PRNewswire/ --

Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:

Indian PV Market Report

http://www.reportlinker.com/p0170922/Indian-PV-Market-Report.html

India promises to become one of the world's largest photovoltaic solar energy markets. The country has the best solar resources in the world. In November 2009, the Government of India announced The National Solar Mission targeting 20,000 megawatts of cumulative installed solar power by 2020. This Mission includes afeed-in-tariff system. This, combined with remarkable solar irradiation, could lead to a quick boom in the Indian PV market. The purpose of the report is to study the Indian PV market situation and analyze the market potential and forecasts for the coming years.

This report examines the development of, and prospects for, the Indian PV market in the light of the country's high potential for growth and the fact that political and public support are a given. The report discusses the legislative background, the potential of different market segments and market forecasts as well a description and listing of all the key stakeholders in the Indian PV market.
