Brief but believable insight into the state of the solar market. This is the kind of thing that's bound to happen in an "immature" industry, and surely the glut in supply will lead to some exciting developments, such as buyouts and consolidations, as Fehrenbacher says.

Brief news report on short-term challenges faced by solar manufacturers this year. While the information is factual, it is a bit shallow and relies on a single source, without much context or depth about the larger trends affecting the solar industry.

Not enough information to claim "gross oversupply", and almost completely single sourced.

More of a blurb than an article, the autor offers little evidence to support her premise.

Pretty strong analysis of the industry.

Good overview of what the solar industry is facing this year.

The storyline highlights several trends that will probably matter in the long-term: consolidation in the industry (vertically and horizontally) which will help it mature, and increased competitiveness which will drive down costs.
