The foreign permitted to invest in solar power generation in 7 provinces and cities of China

China's National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Commerce (16) yesterday jointly issued by the central and western regions of foreign investment in competitive industries directory (2013 Amendment) "(hereinafter referred to as" directory "), solar power generation equipment and parts manufacturing are included in Inner Mongolia, Jiangxi, Sichuan , Guizhou and other provinces and cities in foreign investment in competitive industries directory. Analysis of the industry, the move is expected to reduce trade friction of the Chinese solar products.

Compared with the 2008 amendments directory of the solar grid tie inverter power generation equipment and component manufacturing provinces included in the Catalogue of Priority Industries for Foreign Investment increased from the previous four to seven, namely: Inner Mongolia, Jiangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, Gansu, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Chongqing. Previous foreign investment in solar power generation equipment is limited to equity joint ventures or contractual joint ventures, but this time there is no limit.

Xiamen University, China Energy Economic Research Center Lin Boqiang said to encourage foreign power generation equipment manufacturing, although the short term will exacerbate overcapacity, but in the long run can speed up the development and utilization of solar energy resources, improve the energy structure; also conducive to promote local economic development. It is understood that, according to the "Guiding Foreign Investment Regulations, belonging to the" directory "of foreign investment projects enjoy the preferential policies of encouraged foreign investment projects. "Directory" after the implementation of the compliance of foreign investment in the construction project can enjoy preferential policies.

The data show that, as of now, China's solar cell power generation capacity of 300 million kilowatts, more than 60% of the global total, ranking first in the world. However, due to the new energy industry at the grid connection, there is a certain technical requirements, coupled with the high cost of industry its infancy, was only 10% of solar products for domestic use. The past by exports in the future to increase the domestic market planning. "October 27, 2012, China International Solar Summit organized by the National Energy Board, the China Photovoltaic Industry Alliance Secretary-General Wang Bo and several officials of the National Energy Board expressed a similar view.

On the day before the summit, the State Grid Corporation announced that from November 1 of the year, who meet the conditions of distributed PV projects, will provide a free program for the development, and network testing, debugging the whole process of service and commitment surplus power purchase all. This means that all the roofs and photovoltaic building integration projects are free grid.

Favorable policies to feel better vision has been the new energy enterprises to be more convinced that once the judgment. Miao Jia, Yingli Group distributed power investment management company general manager, said solar energy as an alternative energy source, its application should be popular. In April 2012, the Ministry of Industry and the solar photovoltaic industry, "second Five-Year" development plan "that strive to 2015, the cost of photovoltaic power generation dropped to 0.8 yuan / kWh, it has a certain economic competitiveness.

However, for industries and enterprises, it seems that you do not have to wait until 2015. Yingli Group, responsible person told reporters a few days ago, technological progress and innovation, so that the cost of photovoltaic power generation gradually close to the thermal power, with the national policy to vigorously promote the PV have the strength to compete with conventional power generation mode. The next period of time, the photovoltaic power generation with traditional energy is certainly in a coexistence phase.
