"China's photovoltaic industry maintained growth in 2009, it is very difficult to do." At the recent "2010 China (Changzhou) solar photovoltaic industry in China Photovoltaic Industry Association Conference and the establishment of the General Assembly", the industrial and information Department of Electronic Information Division of the Deputy Inspector Wang Bohua told this reporter. In the context of the international financial crisis, China's PV industry has withstood the test of not only the scale of production can be maintained on top in the world, and building the industry chain is also better.

Becoming a complete industrial system

Today, China has become the world's photovoltaic manufacturing power. Ministry of Industry and Information Technology Electronics and Information Secretary, Xiao Hua PV in this annual speech, said: "In recent years, China's photovoltaic industry has achieved rapid development, relevant state ministries and the strong support of local governments Currently, China's PV industry has formed a relatively complete industrial chain. polysilicon production in mainland China in 2009 over 2 million tons, production of solar cells more than 4000MW, 3 consecutive years as the world's solar cell production in the Dell INSPIRON 8200 Battery. "

This reporter learned that in 2009 the global solar cell production 10.5GW, China's output roughly equivalent to four percent of global production. The world's top 10 PV manufacturers, Chinese enterprises also accounted for four seats. TRW Chairman and CEO of high-century light Where the "China Electronics Report" interview, said: "China in production-scale PV companies holds a leading De Wei Quan Qiu,, the Chinese enterprises in technology, products and brands on Pinzhi has a leading position. "

In the past few years, photovoltaic materials and equipment manufacturing in China has made great progress. Vice president of silicon technology Co., Ltd. in Luoyang, polysilicon fabrication technology director of the National Engineering Laboratory Yanda Zhou told reporters in 2005, China's polysilicon production of only 80 tons; to 2008, the annual output has reached 4,300 tons; in 2009 is breaking 20,000 tons. At the same time, polysilicon production costs are reduced, product quality has continued to improve. According to CEO Paul Lee Shu Xin Hua Association introduced the company's polysilicon production cost per kg is close to 30 U.S. dollars, reducing the gap with international advanced level. Along with improving the quality of polysilicon, in 2010, the company will reach some of the products of electronic grade.

Solar cells and materials industries, the rapid expansion of direct stimulation of the domestic equipment manufacturing industry.

According to the China Electronics Technology Group Corporation 48th Research Institute of Tang Jingting, at present, the Institute has been able to provide, inter polysilicon production plant cell extract and component packages a full line of photovoltaic equipment outside, and the entire production line price only very 35% on imported equipment.

The quality of domestic equipment is not inferior to imported equipment, recently, a famous manufacturer of polycrystalline silicon material to produce a polycrystalline silicon ingot furnace assessment report, which will both polysilicon ingot furnace of domestic enterprises in the global market and the current the highest share of international brands ingot furnace compared to assess the results show that domestic firms refinement technology ingot furnace ingot yield, growth cycle and energy consumption are superior to foreign brands.

In China PV industry development, the gradual formation of the Yangtze River Delta, North China, Central China, as pinpointed largest industry gathering areas, these areas of many cities, so the benefit. Changzhou city, the city has a scale PV companies more than 30 products covering crystal pulling, slicing, batteries, components, system installation and all aspects of photovoltaic manufacturing equipment, has formed a relatively complete industrial chain. According to Zhu Rui, vice mayor of Changzhou City, introduced in 2009, Changzhou City, sales of photovoltaic industry reached 16 billion yuan; program in 2011, Changzhou will have annual sales income of 10 billion yuan to 200 billion enterprise 1, 50 billion to 100 billion enterprise 10.

There are still hidden below the grand

However, the PV industry in China, "booming" atmosphere under which we can not ignore the potential problems. Wang Bohua said the polysilicon industry, the investment appears overheated should cause us to a high degree of vigilance. He said: "We have completed project design capacity of over 40 thousand tons, in the construction of the project design capacity of over 60 thousand tons, although the design of capacity building projects include the preparation of multi-step implementation of the project objectives, but if not in time to regulate and guide, a large number of projects continue to focus on starting the construction of the future will appear the phenomenon of excess capacity. "

At the same time, China's photovoltaic industry in key areas of core technology is not complete at the annual meeting in this PV, Wang Bohua to materials and equipment as an example to the audience on his view: "In the polysilicon area product quality and cost with the international advanced level still lags far behind; in the field of crystalline silicon solar cells, a number of high-end devices still need to import; in the field of thin film solar cells, the main production equipment and abroad there is a sizeable gap compared to . "

In the market, the Chinese PV industry also faces greater risks and competitive pressures. 90% of our PV cells exported. Heavy dependence on international markets, so we always face the challenge of trade protectionism. Air Products (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. General Manager of China's electronics segment Sadao said that in the second half of this year, some European countries reduced the price of photovoltaic power generation, and triggered by the Greek sovereign debt crisis, the economy will be the whole of Europe a certain degree of impact, the continuous depreciation of the euro also, which rely heavily on the European market for photovoltaic IBM THINKPAD X40 SERIES Battery, is an unfavorable factor. "Standardization has also restricted the serious lag in the development of China's PV industry." Wang Bohua said, "for example, our polysilicon production is still no uniform energy consumption, land occupation and environmental standards, our PV products and application technology the development of standards is also behind the market, our products are not perfect quality certification system. In addition, our lack of effective photovoltaic industry interaction, self-discipline is not strong, which also affected the sustainable development of our industry. "

Unity and cooperation to seek win-win

Faced with these problems, the Chinese PV industry is to strengthen cooperation between enterprises and improve the overall competitiveness of an increasing demand, the establishment of industry alliances has become an inevitable choice for the development of photovoltaic industry. Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in the Electronic Information Division, National Development and Reform Division high-tech industry guidance and active promotion by 22 unit of China's PV Industry Alliance, launched in this PV was established at the annual meeting. This 22 unit covers the polysilicon and silicon wafers, solar cells and modules, applications and specialized equipment, including chain backbone enterprises in the industry with full representation and high impact. Wang Bohua deputy inspector to become the first Secretary-General of the League. "By the international financial crisis and the impact of the changing situation in global industry, polysilicon and solar PV industry in China entered the adjustment stage of development. How to guide the healthy and orderly development of polysilicon industry, and promote the development of new highly efficient solar cells, to promote PV industry chain downstream linkage, speed up application start the domestic PV market, and so on, become important issues facing the industry. "Xiao Hua Secretary said," To realize the healthy development of China PV industry, solar industry must strengthen cooperation and exchange and collaboration China's PV industry alliance formed to follow the requirements of the development of new important measure for the development of the entire PV industry set up common platform, will help promote collaboration and downstream industries, to enhance exchange of information within and outside the industry and technical cooperation, conducive to promoting the industry to promote advocacy and policy communication, jointly deal with international industrial competition. "

China PV industry enterprises are also looking forward to the establishment of the League. Crystal Dragon Group Chairman Jin Baofang in the "China Electronics News" interview, said: "Although China is the world's photovoltaic manufacturing country but also between the domestic industry to compete in a state of disorder. The establishment of the Chinese PV Industry Alliance help to regulate the trade order, and allow enterprises to participate in an orderly manner the construction of China's new energy industry; the same time, the Union will also be brainstorming for the development of photovoltaic industry in China made good SONY PCGA-BP2NX Battery; In addition, this platform alliances with industry, enterprises are also can learn from each other, learn from each other.
