Regulus Solar Power Inc.: Price Demand Elasticities
內容大綱
Regulus Solar Power Inc., headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, had continued to experience financial growth over the past decade, thanks in large measure to the environmental movement and declining solar panel prices. The expansion of renewable resources was one of the lynchpins of the environmental movement sweeping the United States. Since its founding in 2010, Regulus Solar Power Inc. had focused on installing solar powered systems throughout the Southwest United States, primarily on residential and commercial applications. By 2018, however, revenues had gone flat due in largely to the rapid expansion of the largest solar panel installer in the United States into Regulus Solar Power Inc.’s traditional marketplace. The company’s management team wished to examine the impact of lowering prices on revenues and assess the opportunities for more fully engaging environmental movement groups.
