European Union Solar PV Installations Hit 16GW

According to the EurObserv'ER (L'Observatioire Des Energies Renouvelables) the installation of PV systems in the European Union reached almost 16GW last year.  That's 16 billion watts! If I figure correctly based on an average of 170 watt panels that is just shy of 600,000 individual panels...quite a bit of installing that went on.

It seems like this is a good sign for the industry.  I don't see any reason why we can do this is North America too.  Come on NA..PV Charge!
