Earnings season finally started this week in the solar industry, and it started with a bang. First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR) absolutely crushed estimates and confirmed that solar module demand is high, prices are rising, and the value of the projects it has built are up as well. I've covered First Solar's report in depth here, but the quick takeaway is that strong results should be a good sign for solar stocks overall.
Outside of earnings, there were still some big developments this week in solar.
