PV Market and Industry Development in China: Impacts of PV Programs and Technology Improvement

Abstract China is THE global runner-up in the PV field. This concerns PV market but even more PV industry development. Especially since 2004 the PV supply chain has developed explosively successful. A drawback is that the industry is orienting more and more towards export, and neglecting (partly due to shortage in modules and manpower) the home market to certain extends especially the market of rural applications. The NDRC/World Bank/GEF China Renewable Energy Development Project (REDP) is ‘running’ from 2001 to 2006. The PV component is aiming at developing the rural market for PV (and small wind) in six north-western provinces. The TI component encourages technology improvement that will lead to lower cost and better quality of components for PV and PV/wind systems. The in-official aim of the TI is also to give the Chinese industry a better chance at competing with western industries in the renewable energy market in general and the Chinese PV market. China had several quality problems in the PV market around 2000, such as the mal functioning due to lacking quality of the PV module, of essential other components (esp. the controller) or due to slow service. By the REDP much attention was paid to how to improve quality in the Chinese market in the supply and service chain. REDP substantially affected the quality of PV components produced in China and the professionalizing of Chinese PV industry. Around the year 2000 the NDRC/WB/GEF China REDP has also been crucial for the attention of the Chinese authorities and industry for PV. Now at the end of the China REDP new programs take over the guiding and trendsetting role, paving the way for China to be one of the top-3 countries in the global PV field before the year 2010.

Solar Generation – Solar Electricity for One Billion People and Two Million Jobs by 2020

Abstract The European Photovoltaic Industry Association (EPIA) and Greenpeace publish this third edition of Solar Generation to update our understanding of the contribution that solar power can make to the world’s energy supply. The report is a practical blueprint to show that solar power is capable of supplying electricity to more than one billion people within two decades, even if our overall electricity use doubles in that time. Solar Generation aims to define the role that solar electricity will play in the lives of a population born today and growing up into an important energy saving and consumption group. The aim has been to examine how solar electricity will be perceived from both the consumer and the business point of view within the timescale of one single generation. The report highlights the benefits which solar energy offers to the world – for the climate and environment, for social development, for economy and supply as well as for industry and employment.

Report on the Development of the Photovoltaic Industry in China (2006-2007)

Abstract Commissioned by the Project Management Office (PMO) of the National Development and Reform Commission/Global Environment Facility/World Bank (NDRC/GEF/WB) China Renewable Energy Development Project (REDP), this paper studies the development of the PV industry in China over the past few years. It is hoped that it will serve as a useful reference for those interested in China’s PV industry and help to promote its further development. This 2006-2007 research report provides both a broad overview and detailed analysis of China’s PV industry. It should assist the entire industry chain, including policy makers, enterprises and investors, to more accurately understand the dynamics of the industry and hence to develop effective strategies, policies and plans for future development of the industry. This 2006 – 2007 report is the second report commissioned by REDP on the Chinese PV industry. In 2005, REDP PMO organized a team of experts to write a Report on the Development of the PV Industry in China (in both Chinese and English) and this was published in August 2006. In that first report, a review was given on the status of, and prospects for, the PV industry and market in China, and policies and plans of action to further promote the industry in China were suggested. That report had a positive impact on the PV industry in China. However, due to the subsequent rapid development, the August 2006 report does not adequately reflect the current status of the PV industry in China. For this reason, in 2007 the REDP PMO commissioned a team of experts to write this updated Report on the Development of the PV Industry in China. Based on collected data and field surveys, this report gives a comprehensive review of the current status of the industry in China, and also makes predictions and policy suggestions for future development.
