The photovoltaic technology is a booming industry across the world. Solar modules can be installed ground mounted or roof top in a very flexible manner, from small self-consumption installations to large facilities that provide electrical power to entire villages.

There are important countries such as Germany, Spain, Italy, France or Canada that are committed to the promotion of this technology through the use of feed-in tariffs. Under this model, a PV plant produces electricity selling that to the grid at a guaranteed price that allows an attractive return on the investment.
