Is solar photovoltaics ready for the future?

Solar photovoltaics (PV) is a mature technology ready to contribute to this challenge. Throughout the last decade, a higher capacity of solar PV was installed globally than any other power-generation technology and cumulative capacity at the end of 2019 accounted for more than 600 GW.

Does central government influence solar PV development in China?

So far, many studies have been conducted on solar PV developments in China, yet the majority of these focused on the top-down dimension, which is central government policy guidance, whereas the bottom-up dimension in the policy-making process, that is, the influence of PV enterprises and local governments on the central government, is overlooked.

How many PV solar installations are there in the world?

The resulting dataset expands the previous publicly available facility-level data for PV solar energy by 432% (in number of facilities), including 18,449 new installations in China, 9,906 in Japan, 4,525 in the United States, 2,021 in India and 17,918 in the European Economic Area.

Is solar DPG a good investment?

For instance, in Germany, nearly 90% of the total solar PV power generation (26 GW) in 2012 was from solar roof power stations, whereas in China, the proportion is merely about 20%, and most of it is not connected to the grid . Solar DPG, especially BIPV in China, is accepted to have great development potential.

Why is the PV industry growing in China?

The PV industry in China entered its period of rapid development during the 21st century because of the significant increase in global demand for PV products. In 2009, the production capacity of PV panels in China nearly reached 4000 MW; a remarkable increase compared with only 5.5 MW of output in 1997 .

Who supported the project PV-Tera – reliable and cost efficient photovoltaic power generation?

This work was supported by the Bavarian State Government (project “PV-Tera – Reliable and cost efficient photovoltaic power generation on the terawatt scale,” no. 44-6521a/20/5).
