China's photovoltaic industry strongly appeals to the European Union to seriously consider launching an anti-dumping investigation against China photovoltaic
as the world's fastest-growing economy, China's technology and application in the field of photovoltaic power generation are only at the downstream level of the world. The main reason is that China has not mastered the polysilicon purification technology required for solar photovoltaic cells, which is currently monopolized by foreign large enterprises, so the cost of domestic production of solar photovoltaic cells is very high. The cost of photovoltaic power generation is several times that of general power generation, so it cannot be widely popularized
China Science and Technology Beijing, July 26 (hexiaoliang) - in response to the German Solarworld company's submission to the European Commission of an "anti-dumping" investigation complaint against Chinese photovoltaic products, Yingli, Suntech, Trinasolar and atlas, four of China's largest photovoltaic enterprises, issued a joint statement in Beijing today on behalf of China's photovoltaic industry, strongly calling on the EU to take a long-term view from China EU trade cooperation and climate change Based on the energy crisis and the overall interests of mankind for sustainable development, we should carefully consider launching an anti-dumping investigation against China photovoltaic
recently, Solarworld, a German photovoltaic enterprise, submitted a complaint to the European Commission, requesting an anti-dumping investigation on Chinese photovoltaic products. Previously, the company has initiated similar lawsuits against China photovoltaic in the United States, which eventually led to the U.S. government making a ruling against China
solar PV has become one of the most competitive export industries in China, while Europe is the main market for the sales of PV products in China. In 2011, the EU accounted for 60% of China's PV export quota of nearly 35.8 billion US dollars. Therefore, if the EU follows the United States in launching an anti-dumping investigation against China's photovoltaic industry, China's photovoltaic industry will suffer a fatal blow that will shake the foundation of the industry
in the statement, Chinese enterprises said that promoting the reform of energy structure, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and realizing low-carbon and environmental protection development are the most urgent common needs of all mankind at present. As the epitome of the advantages of new energy, photovoltaic power generation is rapidly changing the use of human energy. At present, the global photovoltaic market is undergoing large-scale self adjustment, which requires all parties to continue to adhere to rational free competition and form a more scientific and reasonable market model. As the political economy that first advocated the development of the new energy industry, the EU should be very clear that any trade protectionism that restricts the opening of the market will undermine the balanced development of the photovoltaic industry and delay the reform of the world's energy structure. How to revise the steel bar zigzag experimental machine? And ultimately hinder the global common realization of the long-term strategic goal of energy conservation and emission reduction
China points out that the photovoltaic industry is a world industry, and countries belong to the community of interests in the process of developing the photovoltaic industry. While developing itself, China's photovoltaic industry has also brought more opportunities and vitality to the world's photovoltaic industry. Just take the EU as an example. In 2011, the EU, which takes the advantages of technology research and development, raw materials, equipment manufacturing, etc., exported photovoltaic equipment and raw materials to China with a total value of $7.5 billion. In the trade exchanges between the two sides in recent years, the EU has been basically in a surplus. In addition, at present, nearly 300000 jobs related to the solar energy industry in the EU are directly or indirectly from Chinese enterprises
with regard to the allegations made by Solarworld and other enterprises, China once again stressed in the statement that there are no so-called illegal subsidies and dumping problems in China's photovoltaic industry. Before that, China had submitted a large number of factual evidences in response to the "anti-dumping" and "countervailing" investigations of the United States. Chinese photovoltaic products are widely recognized and favored by consumers all over the world, mainly due to their higher sex price, which will produce error ratio of test results, better product quality and more comprehensive after-sales service, and fully follow the basic principle of fair market competition. Many American enterprises, European enterprises and the International Photovoltaic Industry Alliance have also unanimously confirmed and believed that the unreasonable lawsuit brought by Solarworld against Chinese photovoltaic enterprises for its own commercial interests is groundless
the European Commission will decide whether to file a case within 45 days after receiving Solarworld's application. Wang Yiyue, the representative of Chinese enterprises and Chief Strategic Officer of Yingli group, said in an interview with science and technology that Chinese enterprises will do their best to deal with possible results. At the same time, he hoped and called on the Chinese government to actively intervene to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of national enterprises
now, due to the growing international demand for solar photovoltaic cells, more and more domestic enterprises have become OEM factories of photovoltaic cells, and this opportunity is not even possible to become the first largest material to continue to grow. The new energy policy of the United States provides a good opportunity for the development of domestic photovoltaic enterprises. Some domestic industry leaders have invested a total of 38.8 billion yuan and have begun to establish subsidiaries contracting photovoltaic power generation projects in the United States to actively enter the local photovoltaic power generation market. 95% of China's photovoltaic industry market is abroad, and domestic applications are still very limited. In the long run, if China does not widely apply solar photovoltaic power generation technology, the energy problems encountered by China's economic development will become more and more serious, and the energy problem will inevitably become a huge obstacle to China's economic development. China is one of the countries rich in solar energy resources. China has a desert area of 1.08 million square kilometers, mainly distributed in the northwest region, which is rich in light resources. 100MW photovoltaic array can be installed in an area of 1 square kilometer, and 150million kwh of power can be generated every year; If 1% of the desert is developed and utilized, it can generate electricity equivalent to China's power consumption in 2003. At present, in many parts of China, such as the north and the coast, the annual sunshine is more than 2000 hours, and Hainan has reached more than 2400 hours, which is a real power of solar energy resources. It can be seen that China has the geographical conditions for the wide application of photovoltaic power generation technology. The Chinese government has also introduced some policies on the development of new energy in recent years. Among them, the recently issued notice on the implementation of the golden sun demonstration project is the most eye-catching. The notice focuses on supporting the construction of user side parallel photovoltaic power generation, independent photovoltaic power generation, large-scale parallel photovoltaic power generation and other demonstration projects, as well as the industrialization of photovoltaic power generation key technologies such as silicon material purification and operation and related basic capacity construction, and determines the upper limit of unit investment subsidies for various demonstration projects according to the technological advancement and the development status of the market photovoltaic industry. In principle, 50% of the total investment of photovoltaic power generation system and its supporting transmission and distribution projects will be subsidized for photovoltaic power generation projects; Among them, 70% of the total investment of the independent photovoltaic power generation system in remote areas without electricity will be subsidized; For the industrialization of key technologies of photovoltaic power generation and basic capacity-building projects, support is mainly provided through interest discounts and subsidies
