Are China's policies on photovoltaic power generation consistent?

The results show that changes in the degree of synergy between policy goals and measures tend to be consistent and that China's policies on photovoltaic power generation have gradually shifted to the combined use of different policy measures.

What is China's PV solar policy?

China is a quick policy learner that can follow the international policy experience and import them to China. However, Chinese PV solar policy is lack of strategic policy research. For example, the policies that had been launched were mostly made without the guidance of national energy portfolio strategy.

What is China's PV policy in 2008 & 2009?

The years of 2008 and 2009 is the key period for Chinese PV policy. Because of the financial crisis in 2008 and the quickly increasing solar manufacturing in China, the government concerned about the “both ends outside” situation of PV solar industry, and launched the concession bidding project with the price of 0.69 RMB/w.

Should China reassess its solar policy?

Over recent decades, China has risen to a preeminent global position in both solar photovoltaic (PV) adoption and production, a feat underpinned by a suite of pivotal policy measures. With a burgeoning demand for PV systems on the horizon, there is an urgent need to reassess past policies and chart new directions.

Does China have an exit mechanism for PV solar policy instruments?

In China, there is no exit mechanism for policy instruments. We shall learn from Germany and Japan, adjusting the balance of the policy mix depending on the different evolving stages of the industry. Fourth, China’s PV solar policy instruments now is gradually transforming from a supply-side to a demand-side one.

Do China's PV policies reassess past policies and chart New Directions?

With a burgeoning demand for PV systems on the horizon, there is an urgent need to reassess past policies and chart new directions. This study employs bibliometrics and content analysis to systematically scrutinize China's PV policies across distinct phases, delineating the underlying rationale and overarching evolutionary trajectory.
