Considerable effort has been made in promoting the electricity production from renewable energy sources, such as solar photovoltaic (PV), wind, or hydropower. In particular, the development of solar PV has been thriving—it becomes increasingly commercially viable—in places that have readily available access to state-owned power grids.
In the first half of the chapter, an overview of financing and bankability of utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) plants is provided, with a slight touch on microgrid PV financing. The discussion revolves around risk management, which requires rigorous assessment of the financial viability.
The solar photovoltaic (PV) power is abundant, clean, and convenient and also has been considered as one of the most promising renewable energies [5, 6]. Due to the ever-increasing energy and environmental pressures, China is switching to focus more on fostering the PV industry.
The solar PV industry (as well as wind power) was supported and promoted with the explicit aim to create a leader in the global renewable energy market and to export equipment made in China to the promising solar markets in Europe and in USA. China’s government wanted to take its export-oriented, “factory of the world” economy to the next level.
This implies that given a certain amount of GSs, PV enterprises without state-owned shares are more willing to carry out R&D activities. Because these enterprises are small and short of capital, they can only acquire better profits and competitive advantages in the market through innovation efforts.
Since state-owned PV enterprises have a greater need to serve government objectives to secure legitimacy, the government should also emphasize the strategic priority of innovation rather than production explosion to stimulate the R&D efforts of state-owned PV enterprises.
Introduction to Photovoltaic Solar Energy | SpringerLink
Photovoltaic cells or so-called solar cell is the heart of solar energy conversion to electrical energy (Kabir et al. 2018). Without any involvement in the thermal process, the photovoltaic cell can transform solar energy directly into electrical energy. Compared to conventional methods, PV modules are advantageous in terms of reliability, modularity, …

Photovoltaics
Photovoltaic (PV) technologies – more commonly known as solar panels – generate power using devices that absorb energy from sunlight and convert it into electrical energy through semiconducting materials. These devices, known as solar cells, are then connected to form larger power-generating units known as modules or panels.
