China unleashed the full might of its solar energy industry last year. It installed more solar panels than the United States has in its history. It cut the wholesale price of panels it sells by nearly half. And its exports of fully assembled solar panels climbed 38 percent while its exports of key components almost doubled.
China’s solar PV manufacturing also accounts for about 71 per cent of the world’s total capacity. With over 260 PV module manufacturers in China, 35.4 GW of PV products were exported in the first five months this year, representing a 34 per cent year-on-year increase. In fact, China dominates all sectors of the world’s PV solar panel production.
China has at least 80% of the global market share in solar manufacturing capacity, making Chinese exports an important dataset for tracking the clean energy transition. In the first half of 2023, exports of solar panels from China grew by 34%, with 114 GW shipped worldwide, compared to 85 GW in the same period last year.
Here’s what you need to know about the booming market. According to data from the IEA, by the end of 2020, China had 253 GW of installed capacity compared with about 151 GW in the EU. China’s solar PV manufacturing also accounts for about 71 per cent of the world’s total capacity.
Solar modules, which are fully assembled solar panels, accounted for 90% ($23.8 bn) of China’s total solar exports by value in the first half of 2023. Over the last 12 months, China exported 111 GW of solar modules to Europe, the same amount as the total installed PV capacity of the United States.
Beijing is set to further increase its manufacturing and installation of solar panels as it seeks to master global markets and wean itself from imports. China unleashed the full might of its solar energy industry last year. It installed more solar panels than the United States has in its history.
