In 2009, the production capacity of PV panels in China nearly reached 4000 MW; a remarkable increase compared with only 5.5 MW of output in 1997 . China is now the largest manufacturer of solar PV products in the world . In addition, the government is investing heavily into this field for relevant scientific research.
For instance, with the help of the Global Environment Fund and the World Bank, the Chinese government implemented the Renewable Energy Development Program (REDP), which was designed mainly to promote household solar PV systems in the nine provinces of western China. From 2002 to 2007, more than 400,000 PV solar home systems were installed .
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.
The major solar power technology currently available is the solar PV system, in which sunlight is directly converted into electricity via photovoltaic effect. The PV industry in China entered its period of rapid development during the 21st century because of the significant increase in global demand for PV products.
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.
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 .
