Quote:
"And many Japanese manufacturers, content to maintain technological leadership with highly efficient solar cells, have lost market share to less efficient—but less expensive—panels made by German and Chinese competitors.
"Mr. Kameda, who became the head of Showa Shell's solar business in 2006 after a 35-year career in the oil industry, says 'How come Japanese firms have lost out in semiconductors, LCD televisions and mobile phones? It's because they didn't act fast enough to take on risk and expand their business.'
My comment: This report is very informative.
