China has at least 80% of the global market share in solar manufacturing capacity, making Chinese exports an important dataset for tracking the clean energy transition. In the first half of 2023, exports of solar panels from China grew by 34%, with 114 GW shipped worldwide, compared to 85 GW in the same period last year.
In 2022, for the first time, more than $50 billion of China’s PV products was exported, including a module value estimated at $42.361 billion, with an export volume of 153.6GW, representing a growth of 55.8% year on year. The surge in solar energy use made the EU the biggest destination region for China’s PV exports in 2022.
In 2023, solar PV module exports in China surpassed 212 gigawatts. Meanwhile, China's export volume of solar cells stood at 39 gigawatts that same year. The export value of solar photovoltaic equipment reached 52 billion U.S. dollars in 2022. Get notified via email when this statistic is updated. No data for wafer exports in 2023.
China currently produces around eight out of every ten solar panels, and the growth in Chinese exports has global implications for the scale-up of clean power. The data reveals that Europe accounted for 52.5% of the value of China’s solar exports in the first half of 2023.
Both the volume and value of exports have increased in recent years. In 2021, China’s solar module export exceeded 100 gigawatts for the first time, with a growth rate of more than 25% year on year, while the export value exceeded $20 billion, up 15%-20%.
Solar modules, which are fully assembled solar panels, accounted for 90% ($23.8 bn) of China’s total solar exports by value in the first half of 2023. Over the last 12 months, China exported 111 GW of solar modules to Europe, the same amount as the total installed PV capacity of the United States.
