Which of the following most logically completes the argument?
United States manufacturers currently produce most of the world's solar-power generators-most of which are
exported to Europe. However, European manufacturers are emerging and probably will ultimately capture
much of the European market. The United States government is funding initiatives intended to encourage use
of solar power within the United States. If these initiatives succeed in increasing the demand for solar-power
generators in the United States, United States manufacturers will probably maintain significant production
levels, since __________.
A. some United States manufacturers have been substantially increasing their output over the last several years
B. the efficiency of solar-power generators in converting energy from the Sun into electric power is not improving
as fast as it once did
C. just as European manufacturers enjoy certain competitive advantages in Europe, so do United States
manufacturers in the United States
D. European governments are currently undertaking initiatives to stimulate the use of solar power within Europe
E. the current market for solar-power generators in the United States is very limited

Will post OA after some discussion.
