[Photo by Zhang Xiufeng/For chinadaily.com.cn] China is set to witness a substantial surge in photovoltaic installations this year with the projected new installed capacity being raised from 95-120 gigawatts to 120-140GW, according to the China Photovoltaic Industry Association on Thursday.
China’s solar photovoltaic (PV) industry’s protracted battle with overcapacity may be drawing to a close, after years of bruising price wars and rapid capacity build-up plunged half the sector into the red, forcing closures and disrupting expansion plans, analysts say.
[SHI BUFA/FOR CHINA DAILY] China's photovoltaic or PV industry is on a fast track of development with new installations and exports hitting record highs, and will stay resilient amid mounting challenges from fiercer global competition and trade uncertainties, experts said.
For this year, analysts expect China to add 500-600 GW of PV module production capacity, a 60-70% increase, well above growth in solar projects. That would force manufacturers to export even more to markets such as Europe and the U.S., which doubled tariffs on cells used to make solar panels from 25% to 50%.
“The China solar industry is heading into the final stage of a downcycle, with a cyclical bottom likely in 2025.” Longi’s earnings suffered the most, as its net losses amounted to 5.2 billion yuan ($740 million) over the first six months of the year after earning profits of 9.3 billion in the same period in 2023.
China's solar industry climbed to new heights in 2023, with manufacturing, installed capacity and exports experiencing robust growth and reshaping the global landscape with continuous technological breakthroughs.
