"considering that the cost of solar materials continues to climb"

Huh? Perhaps you need to explain this. It is my impression that the cost of solar PV is falling right now. Also because of the downturn the cost of all metals, glass, etc is less than it was a year ago. Now credit is harder to come by that is true...

solar PV might be dropping, but the medium outlook of cleantech should be positive given the VC influx cycle and obama's policy:

Let' see if they can survive this downturn. The industry needs to go through transformation in consolidation and efficiency btw

Lauren Engineers & Constructors is building FPL's 75 megawatt solar thermal plant.

As an earlier Comment noted, solar material input costs and solar module price per Watt are declining in this period of soft demand during the economic crisis. Large PV project financing is challenging during the credit crunch.
