6 FAQs about [China s Solar Power System Policy]

Does China's solar policy influence the development of the solar industry?

However, based on the limited studies on China’s solar PV policies, the literature only lists China’s existing PV solar policies , , which cannot explain the dynamic trajectory of Chinese solar policy and its relation to the development of the industry.

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 a solar PV policy?

To our knowledge, rare studies make a comprehensive analysis on China's solar PV policies, particularly on policies implemented during 2011–2012. The purpose of this paper is to make an effort to fill this gap. It contributes to the academic literature over China's solar PV power policies.

What is China's PV policy?

The rationale for China’s PV policy is still government management-oriented rather than industry efficiency-oriented. In the last decade, China’s photovoltaic (PV) industry has developed rapidly, with the joint promotion of the world market and domestic policies, and China has now become the largest PV manufacturer in the world.

What is China's Energy Plan?

The plan was created by the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration, and was published by the General Office of the State Council. China has rolled out a raft of measures to increase installed wind and solar power capacity in the latest step toward a low-carbon, secure and efficient energy mix.

What are the major barriers to solar PV development in China?

The major barriers for the development of solar PV power currently in China are the deficiencies of the national FIT scheme and the lack of sound technical and administration standards for grid-connection of solar PV systems. 4.1. Deficiencies of the national FIT scheme
