If you've followed solar power generation at all, you've probably heard of First Solar. This company has a few hundred megawatts of solar cells up and running, right now. They currently have enough production capacity to bring ~700 MW online each year.
I'm intrigued, especially after reading through some of their financials. They had a profit margin of over 30% in 2007. I'm curious to see how they did in 2008 (numbers come out on 2/24/09).

This company seems like it may have a lot of potential with Obama as president. We're likely to see the cost of coal generated electricity increase, and I also think we're more likely to see solar power subsidized than we would have under McCain.
