Nearly 50 developing countries have so far adopted solar PV. Feed-in tariff policies, which accelerate investment by offering producers favorable long-term contracts, are the most extended form of solar PV support. For instance, in Uganda, FITs have attractive prices, which have boosted the country’s renewable market and local economy.
India makes up 1.9% of global solar panel production, like South Korea and the US. Its largest solar panel manufacturer is Waaree Energies, founded in Mumbai in 1989, which has a manufacturing capacity of over 12GW.
The World Bank’s RISE (Regulatory Indicators for Sustainable Energy) scorecard shows that developing nations such as Mexico, China, India and Brazil, are increasingly taking the lead in delivering supportive policies for clean energy adoption. Nearly 50 developing countries have so far adopted solar PV.
The world's largest solar panel manufacturer is Tongwei Solar (TW-Solar), which was founded in China in 2009. China's control over the solar industry goes beyond just manufacturing and extends to the entire supply chain, including the production of almost 80% of the silicon needed for solar panels.
The manufacture of solar PV technology is worthy of mention too, if only to note China’s ascendancy: the country has dominated the manufacture and global shipments of solar PV units for eight consecutive years, since 2010. The top 10 manufacturers, of which a majority are China-based, accounted for about 50 percent of shipments during 2016.
Here at Grian™, we believe that solar energy is the solution for providing electricity to our World’s developing countries. Solar energy will provide a clean, renewable, accessible source of energy for these parts of the globe.
