In recent years, the growing global demand for solar photovoltaic cells has spurred many domestic enterprises to become original equipment manufacturing (OEM) factories for these cells, allowing them to capitalize on this opportunity for continued growth and expansion. The U.S.'s new energy policies have opened up excellent prospects for domestic photovoltaic companies. Some leading domestic firms have already started setting up branches in the U.S., contracting photovoltaic power generation projects, and actively entering the local solar power market. Currently, 95% of China's photovoltaic market is overseas, with domestic applications still relatively limited. In the long term, China is unlikely to extensively adopt solar photovoltaic power generation technology. The energy issues China faces during its economic development will increasingly pose significant challenges. Energy problems will undoubtedly become a major hurdle to China's economic progress. With its vast solar resources, China boasts a desert area of 1.08 million square kilometers, primarily located in regions rich in sunlight in the northwest. A single square kilometer can accommodate a 100-megawatt photovoltaic array, capable of generating 150 million kWh annually. If only 1% of the desert were utilized for development, it could produce the equivalent of China's total electricity consumption in 2003. Presently, many areas in northern China and along the coast receive over 2,000 hours of sunshine annually, while Hainan exceeds 2,400 hours. Clearly, China possesses the geographical conditions necessary for the widespread adoption of photovoltaic power generation technology. The Chinese government has also implemented several policies to promote the development of renewable energy in recent years. One of the most notable initiatives is the "Golden Sun Demonstration Project Notice." This notice focuses on constructing demonstration projects such as user-side grid-connected photovoltaic power generation, independent photovoltaic power generation, large-scale grid-connected photovoltaic power generation, and the industrialization of key photovoltaic power generation technologies like silicon material purification and grid-connected operation. Additionally, it supports related infrastructure development. The level of unit investment subsidies for each project depends on the degree of advancement and market development. For grid-connected photovoltaic power generation projects, the subsidy generally covers 50% of the total investment in photovoltaic power generation systems and associated transmission and distribution projects. Independent photovoltaic power generation systems in remote, non-electrified areas receive a 70% subsidy. Industrialization of key technologies and infrastructure building projects are primarily supported through grants and subsidies. This policy has transformed China from being merely a foundry factory for photovoltaic cells into a solar photovoltaic power generation nation. Facing the challenges posed by competing international companies, domestic PV enterprises must continuously improve product quality and expand both domestic and international sales channels to seize these opportunities and strengthen their businesses. Solar energy, being renewable and environmentally friendly, has become a key focus of the new energy industry in many countries, including China. Although China's photovoltaic products are primarily exported to European and American markets, domestic market share remains low. However, due to increasing demand in Europe and the U.S., China’s photovoltaic industry has grown rapidly over the past five years, with an average annual growth rate exceeding 40%. Under supportive policies, the future growth potential of the photovoltaic industry looks promising. The photovoltaic power industry chain spans from upstream to downstream, including polysilicon, silicon wafers, photovoltaic cells, and modules. As you move down the chain from polysilicon to modules, the technical barriers to production decrease, resulting in an increase in the number of companies. Consequently, profits in the entire photovoltaic industry chain are primarily concentrated in the upstream polysilicon production segment, where upstream companies enjoy significantly higher profitability compared to downstream ones. At present, the profit derived from polysilicon production in mainland China constitutes the largest portion of the final module product’s total profit, accounting for approximately 52%. Profits from module production account for around 18%, while those from photovoltaic chips and wafers amount to roughly 17% and 13%, respectively. Since 2008, polysilicon prices have fallen sharply. By now, the domestic spot price has dropped from $500/kg last year to $100-150/kg. In 2012, the price ranged between $18-$30/kg. Rapid capacity expansion in polysilicon production, coupled with slower demand growth, has been the primary cause of these price drops. According to iSuppi’s predictions, global polysilicon supply is expected to double in 2009, while demand growth is only projected to reach 34%. Thus, polysilicon prices are likely to fall further. iSuppi even stated that by 2010, the spot price might drop to $100/kg, drastically reducing the profitability of polysilicon suppliers. The decline in polysilicon prices benefits cell manufacturers but poses significant risks to pure wafer businesses. Whether it’s upstream polysilicon suppliers or downstream cell manufacturers, neither faces any technical hurdles in producing silicon wafers. When upstream and downstream companies simultaneously entered the wafer business, the profit margins within the silicon wafer supply chain were severely compressed. China’s photovoltaic industry has developed a relatively complete industrial chain. In 2009, China’s polysilicon production surpassed 20,000 tons, and solar cell production exceeded 4,000 megawatts, making it the world’s largest solar cell producer for three consecutive years. In May 2010, the China Photovoltaic Industry Alliance was established, attracting 22 leading domestic PV enterprises, industry associations, and research institutions to join. The alliance aims to guide joint industry innovation, promote applications, and standardize development. It studies various policies that encourage the photovoltaic industry's growth and provides support for enterprise technological transformation and industrial upgrades. The China Photovoltaic Industry Alliance focuses on integrating industrial resources, promoting structural adjustments, transforming development models, enhancing industry cohesion, and expanding international influence and competitiveness.
