According to data released by the National Energy Administration, the cumulative total installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation in China in 2020 was 253GW, a year-on-year increase of 23.8%. As photovoltaics gradually enter the era of parity and 14-five-year plan, the installed capacity will show a more rapid growth trend.
In order to develop economically by sustaining its own energy demand without harming the environment, the Chinese government has the incentive to support the development of solar power generation. China started research on solar cells in 1958, which were first applied on the satellite Dongfanghong no. 2 in 1971.
With the joint efforts of all parties, China's photovoltaic power generation has achieved rapid development, and the scale of development and construction has continued to expand.
So far, many studies have been conducted on solar PV developments in China, yet the majority of these focused on the top-down dimension, which is central government policy guidance, whereas the bottom-up dimension in the policy-making process, that is, the influence of PV enterprises and local governments on the central government, is overlooked.
In recent years, the Chinese government has promulgated numerous policies to promote the PV industry. As the largest emitter of the greenhouse gases (GHG) in the world, China and its policies on solar and other renewable energy have a global impact, and have gained attention worldwide .
This development plan is basically in accordance with the current status of solar PV application in China as large-scale PV (LS-PV), BIPV & BAPV, and rural electrification constitute the major market of solar PV, as shown in Fig. 1.
Solar Photovoltaic Principles
Basic operational principles. Direct use of solar energy can be performed in essentially two different ways: (1) the transformation of sunlight directly into electricity in semiconducting devices that are more popularly known as solar cells; and (2) the collection of heat in solar collectors. The transformation of solar radiation into electrical current is referred …
