How did the financial crisis affect China's photovoltaic industry?

The 2007–2008 financial crisis hampered the exports of China's photovoltaic industry. To boost the development of this industry, a series of policy measures were introduced in 2009 to promote the application of photovoltaic power generation in the Chinese market, with many photovoltaic power generation projects being approved.

Do photovoltaic power generation policy synergies exist in China?

We quantitatively examine photovoltaic power generation policy synergies in China. This study expands the existing quantitative research on policy content analysis. China employs strong administrative power approaches, such as macro planning. Market-oriented approaches have not produced strong synergistic effects in China.

How does China manage photovoltaic power generation?

(3) Research on policy measures indicate that China relies more on traditional administrative resources when formulating photovoltaic power generation policies and employs approaches with strong administrative power, such as macro planning, regulation and supervision, and fiscal policies.

What is China's accumulative PV capacity?

By the year 2030, China's accumulative PV capacity is expected to reach at least 400 GW and provide 10 % of its energy consumption (Sweerts et al., 2019; Zhang et al., 2020). By 2060, the PV capacity will reach 3600 GW, about 11.76 times the current scale (Lu et al., 2022).

Is PV power a problem in China?

Meanwhile, PV power has gradually raised huge concerns in China. According to statistics 7, the installed capacity of PV power in China was only 100 MW in 2007, but grew rapidly to 205,000 MW in 2019, with an average growth of 17,075 MW per year.

Why is solar photovoltaic power generation important?

Solar photovoltaic power generation plays a very important role in the development of new energy.
