Suli, Qatar will start exporting polysilicon to Germany very shortly and at a cheaper rate than what Germans produce and hopefully there would be a forward integration in Qatar's polysilicon plant in RasLaffan in a few years where they themselves will start manufacturing solar panels.

Conversion of sand to silicon will be cheapest in Qatar owing to its abundance in dune sand, cheap power and affordable asian labour.

Btw, China is already an exporter of Solar Panels.
