The first half of 2023 has shown a significant increase in the performance of the photovoltaic (PV) industry in China. This report provides an analysis of the industry’s performance during this period, focusing on the export and production volumes of PV products.
Photovoltaic research in China began in 1958 with the development of China's first piece of monocrystalline silicon. Research continued with the development of solar cells for space satellites in 1968. The Institute of Semiconductors of the Chinese Academy of Sciences led this research for a year, stopping after batteries failed to operate.
Overall, the Chinese PV industry is demonstrating robust growth and a significant shift towards the production of N-type products. These trends reflect the industry’s strong performance in both domestic and international markets and are testament to China’s integral role in the global renewable energy sector.
Most of China's solar power is generated within its western provinces and is transferred to other regions of the country. In 2011, China owned the largest solar power plant in the world at the time, the Huanghe Hydropower Golmud Solar Park, which had a photovoltaic capacity of 200 MW.
Production capacity, technology innovation among world's best In the first six months of this year, the newly installed capacity of China's PV industry reached 102.48 GW, according to reliable data. "China has made significant achievements in multiple segments of the PV industry, including cells, modules, and silicon wafers.
