Abstract :
This paper analyzes the challenges to deployment of PV in Argentina. We discuss current changes in the PV market as well as financial, technical and regulatory factors that both favor and act as barriers to growth. We identify several significant factors that are enabling PV penetration, particularly projects directed at easing PV grid connection.
