Just open an industry website, the first message that comes into view is our friendly neighbors - India may impose tariffs of up to 25% on imported photovoltaic cells and components. There is no doubt that this is another kind of Chinese PV' Revealing the behavior of salting.
China's photovoltaics have been ravaged by Europe and the United States.
Because, in early July, the US Trump administration announced that it would import tariffs on China's imported PV modules and inverters by 10%.
Prior to this, on January 24, the United States announced the '201 clause' resolution on solar cells, components. Among them, the tariff on imported products will be enforced for 4 years, the first year tax rate is 30%, and then the annual drop of 5%, The tax rate will be 15% by 2021.
Not only in the United States, in the 2011-2012 wave of China's PV 'double anti-' wave, the EU and Australia and other countries and regions have joined the 'blocking and blocking' camp of China's photovoltaic industry. Hua PV 'SLR' policy has not been revoked.
Falling from heaven to hell
When Europe, the United States, India and other countries and regions are trying to compress the living space, China's photovoltaic industry has also encountered the variables brought about by policy changes in China. On May 31, 2018, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance and the National Energy Administration Jointly issued the "Notice on Matters Related to Photovoltaic Power Generation in 2018", and the document on Development and Reform Energy [2018] No. 823.
Document No. 823 announced that the construction scale of ordinary photovoltaic power plants in 2018 will not be arranged. The construction index of distributed photovoltaic projects will be arranged at 10GW, and the on-grid price of photovoltaic power plants in Class I, Class II and Class III resource areas will be lowered. The distributed photovoltaic power generation projects will be powered. Subsidy 0.05 yuan.
China's photovoltaics have suddenly fallen from heaven to hell. At this critical moment of survival, they have to be deeply rethought. Who is China PV?
Under the background of energy transformation and upgrading, vigorously developing photovoltaic is an inevitable trend of energy development. There is no doubt about this.
The glory of the past is not enough
From the data of the first half of 2016-2018, the achievements of China's photovoltaic industry can not be said to be not brilliant enough, can not be said to be not enough to use the world, can not be said to be not shocking.
On April 24, 2018, Li Chuangjun, deputy director of the New Energy and Renewable Energy Department of the National Energy Administration, said at a news conference that China's photovoltaic power generation has been installed in the world for five consecutive years, and the cumulative installed capacity has been in existence for three consecutive years. The world's first.
China Photovoltaic Industry Association (CPIA) released "China's photovoltaic industry development in 2017" shows that in 2017 China's polysilicon production was 242,000 tons, up 24.7% year-on-year, wafer production was 91.7GW, up 41.5% year-on-year, and battery production was 72GW. The growth rate was 41.2%, and the component output was 75GW, a year-on-year increase of 39.7%.
China Photovoltaic Industry Association (CPIA) data also showed that in 2017 China's solar wafers, solar cells and photovoltaic modules exports totaled 13.11 billion US dollars, of which India accounted for 24.1%, Japan accounted for 14.8%, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, The United States, Australia, Mexico, Thailand, and Brazil each account for 3-7%.
At the same time, in the 10 years from 2007 to 2017, under the promotion of technological innovation by Chinese PV companies, the cost of PV modules has dropped by more than 80%, and the conversion efficiency has also increased substantially simultaneously, which has promoted the application and popularization of photovoltaic power generation in countries around the world. He has made outstanding contributions to the global response to climate change, reducing carbon emissions, promoting energy upgrading, and practicing the concept of green development.
In order to recognize and encourage the development of photovoltaic industry, in autumn 2017, photovoltaic power generation and wind power, high-speed rail, large aircraft boarded the party's 19th commemorative stamp cover.
Who is China PV?
However, it is puzzling that this kind of clean energy, which is good for leaving future generations with sky blue, water green and green and beautiful ecological environment, has been set up in various trade barriers, which has seriously hindered the development of photovoltaic power generation industry. .
China's photovoltaics provoke the United States, the European Union, India?
Under the free market competition mechanism, this situation does not exist.
Then why do Europe, the United States, and India still have to deliberately contain China?
To a certain extent, if under the WTO rules, the reasons for the relevant countries to sanction China cannot be found, the answer can only be found in the 'conspiracy theory'.
Looking at photovoltaics from the perspective of China and the United States
First of all, China's PV industry is too strong, breaking the pattern of 'two heads outside', taking the status of Europe and America's 'leading' and letting Europe and the United States feel a strong threat to an emerging industry, which must be cut first and then quickly.
Second, energy is the lifeblood of the national economy. Whoever has the energy, will have the right to speak and lead in the global economic development. As a clean energy, the development of the photovoltaic industry optimizes China's energy structure and improves. China's energy security 'valve level', which is one of the factors that Europe and the United States do not want to see the vigorous development of China's photovoltaic industry.
Third, in 2017, China's PV exports totaled US$13.11 billion, which was calculated to be 89.148 billion yuan against US$6.8 billion, only one step away from the 100 billion yuan mark. Whether it is a trade surplus with Europe and the United States, it is still right. In other countries' exports, PV is an important part of it. For the European and American countries that need to change the current foreign trade deficit, PV is an important target.
One detail to be aware of is that in 2017, the United States has started a partial trade war against China. The first goal chosen by Uncle Sam is precisely photovoltaic.
The man of the big man, for the country to pick up!
To a certain extent, China's PV has repeatedly suffered from Europe, the United States, and India's 'encirclement'. The origin of this industry is still broad enough for this industry. The cause is great enough, and the Chinese PV industry is too strong in the world, and therefore the volume The vortex of political and economic wrangling in the great powers.
This is the unfortunate phenomenon of China's photovoltaic industry. Unfortunately, China's PV development process is full of twists and turns, and the industry is in short-term turmoil. This is also the fortunate of China's photovoltaic industry. Fortunately, this will further stimulate the innovation, creativity and development of the entire industry. A new world is just around the corner; this is the glory of China's photovoltaics: the big man, the country to take over!
