China Resource Power reported that the fourth tender for solar panels finished bidding, with four companies sharing a total of 5.1 GW in PV panel orders. JA Solar was the biggest winner with three bids totaling 3.1 GW in orders. Chint won 1.25 GW, new TOPCon player DaSolar took 600 MW and Jinko secured 150 MW. All panels will be 540 W or higher.
The subsidies fight is the latest chapter in a long-running tussle between the US and China over solar. Washington has cracked down on imports of solar parts, slapping tariffs on imports directly from China and also from Chinese companies operating in south-east Asia.
Europe and China’s battle over the solar industry has been going on for two decades. Chinese solar-panel makers are winning with an unassailable lead: they now account for 80 per cent of global production capacity. But the cost of that victory is now looking too high. China dominates the solar panel sector’s entire supply chain.
Beneficiaries include Chinese-backed projects, such as: Trina Solar’s 5GW plant in Wilmer, Texas; Illuminate Solar’s 5GW plant in Pataskala, Ohio; and Jinko Solar’s expansion of its Jacksonville, Florida, facility to 1GW. The companies declined or did not respond to requests for comment.
Chinese solar-panel makers are winning with an unassailable lead: they now account for 80 per cent of global production capacity. But the cost of that victory is now looking too high. China dominates the solar panel sector’s entire supply chain. Prices, which are nearly two-thirds lower than US counterparts, have helped it to win market share.
The projects have been further boosted by their backers’ substantial financial firepower and the technological knowhow garnered during China’s rise to dominate the global solar supply chain. This has allowing them to push ahead rapidly with new plants, even as some of the competition has faltered.
