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.
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.
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.
We outline several features of solar policy support in China. The 5-Year Plans provided national guideline and sectoral industrial policy focus. However, the funding and implementa- heterogeneity in policy support towards the solar industry across cities. Measuring industrial

Hence, demand policies have a muted efect on the local industry. exports, revenues and firm numbers), because they are only given to firms located in the city. of R&D and also learning-by-doing.
