Global solar cell and module makers are expected to see their net profit margins rebound to an average of 20 percent in the first half of this year, helped by falling Silicon solar module costs and rebounding demand, market researcher DisplaySearch said in its latest report.
Rising government Watt Solar Module initiatives on using green energy, solar installation, especially, in Europe, Solar Panel Module Japan, the US and China, would help boost demand for photovoltaic installments up 40 percent annually this year, the Austin, Texas-based researcher said in the report dated Dec. 31.
The net profit margin would represent a significant rebound from minus 5 percent in the second quarter of last year, the report showed.
DisplaySearch also expected the level for the whole year would hover around 20 percent, higher than an average 15 percent during the 2006 to 2008 period.
