China’s 2023 solar exports hit a record high with over 40% growth for all equipment. The surge was dominated by modules that reached a new high of 227 GW. Meanwhile, cells had the most rapid growth at 61.6% to 38 GW. The country consolidated its control over module supply chain manufacturing, with its share exceeding 80%.
As more markets continue to adopt local content requirements (LCRs), China will start to face increasing constraints for solar exports. In response to growing LCRs, Chinese players are globalising manufacturing capacity to offset a loss in exports. Energy storage investors expand overseas footprint
This complaint has since been dropped, but more recently, US solar panel and wind turbine tower makers have charged the Chinese with subsidizing below-cost exports (Wald and Bradsher, 2011).
This is equivalent to about 84 GW of modules, more than half of China's total module exports in 2022, he said. BloombergNEF said it expects the market for newly built PV modules to grow by another 8 GW in 2023 in Europe to reach 49 GW. China will contribute significantly to it.
The foreign companies that supplied the bulk of China's early wind deployment were in-country subsidiaries of the world market leaders mentioned above. These firms had to comply with a range of government policies aimed explicitly at encouraging technology transfer and the development of a domestic WTGS industry.
In 2023, China achieved record photovoltaic export volume growth across all subcomponents, driving manufacturing expansion in emerging markets. Following Wood Mackenzie’s recent presentation at the SNEC Solar PV Conference & Exhibition in Shanghai in June, we share our insights on the global reach of China’s solar and storage industry.
