Welcome to the Tyco Electronics' Solar Energy & Solarlok Product Training Module. Market expansion of the formerly regulated energy supply sector has increased global environmental awareness. The increasing number of governments committing themselves to more stringent environmental targets has opened up new opportunities for the photovoltaic industry. Having served a niche market in the past, the photovoltaics industry now has the opportunity to move into mass production, realizing economies of scale and gaining a greater market share of the world's energy mix.
