Hi,

We are now in the count down to the 2nd Concentrated Photovoltaics Summit in Toledo, and I have a very special news item for you, that I think you will very much enjoy - it is an in depth interview with Ignacio Luque-Heredia, the chairman of the summit in Toledo, about the CPV industry. Luque-Heredia is a 15 year industry veteran and expresses his views about where the industry is what the future holds.

Hope to see you in Toledo, if not, maybe next time!
