New and cumulative installed capacities of China's solar PV power from 2000 to 2017. In order to effectively coordinate the scale and speed of the solar PV installation with the economic development, China has occasionally set and adjusted the development targets for solar PV power.
With the rapid evolution of technologies in the solar PV industry, China can no longer simply rely on its manufacturing ability and price advantage to continue to dominate the market. Instead, the industry must resort to strategies that intensify innovation in order to stay ahead of the game.
According to the national development strategy, China will develop solar photovoltaic power generation vigorously. Large-scale development of solar photovoltaic requires a lot of financial support, thus, how to achieve development goals with minimum cost is a meaningful study and can provide practical significance for policy studies.
During the 1980s, China introduced several photovoltaic (PV) cell production lines from the United States, Canada, and other countries, which eventually formed the solar PV industry in China . By the end of the 1990s, a number of component packaging plants were built.
Not surprisingly, these subsidy programs by the central and local governments have spurred more companies to enter the solar PV sector and the number of solar PV enterprises in China has soared from no more than 100 in 2008 to over 500 in 2012 , .
China has already made major commitments to transitioning its energy systems towards renewables, especially power generation from solar, wind and hydro sources. However, there are many unknowns about the future of solar energy in China, including its cost, technical feasibility and grid compatibility in the coming decades.
