Zhu et al. (2021) examined the impact of both internal and external forces on China’s solar PV export during 2007–2016, and found that trade protectionism and some non-tariff barriers inhibit China’s PV exports.
China leads the world in manufacturing solar PV technology. The number of countries importing solar PV technology from China is increasing. Chinese solar PV firms are primarily engaging in downstream activities overseas. There are opportunities for technology transfer within all segments of the solar value chain.
The Chinese companies supply around 200 countries’ needs of solar PVs, besides their domestic demand. Furthermore, to level up the competition, China invests in South Asian neighboring countries’ solar projects. Investments in Vietnam, Malaysia, and other countries, made them worthy opponents able to supply the rest of the world as well.
As well as forming a vast proportion of the global energy market, their role as major solar exporters has also shaped China’s foreign trade market. At MSC, we understand the importance of thriving in a global market. That’s why we provide our solar clients with universally professional local services and solutions on a global scale.
The growth in solar exports from China is helping to meet growing demand for clean, affordable power, driven by markets like Europe and South Africa that are aiming to increase energy security. Solar power is expected to be the largest source of electricity capacity by 2027 and will be key to rapidly reducing emissions across the power sector.
