WHAT IS THE PV MATRIX?

The PV Matrix illustrates and links the complete PV value chain by separating solar technology into five main segments:

• Silicon
• Thin-Film
• Organic
• Installation and power generation
• Research and development (R&D)

Each segment expands to show categories within that technology, or field, and simplifies the process of finding specific information and identifying key suppliers.
* The PV Matrix is simple to use and updated in real-time, is easy to access online www.matrix.ipvea.org (best with Firefox web browsers) and is now also an iPad app at the iTunes Store
