“My responsibilities include the definition of a new company strategy that complies with the new feed-in tariff and the necessities of our Spanish customers,” said Mr. Garcia. “While the new decree means, on one hand, a serious brake for the Spanish PV sector, it will also lead us back to a market that is steady and more sustainable. I firmly believe in solar energy as a sustainable solution for the global energy needs.”
