Solar Grants and Subsidies
Explore the complete guide to solar grants, subsidies, and renewable energy incentives. Learn how to finance your solar panel and energy storage system.
When supported by government subsidies, the government should give full consideration to the power structure of the PV supply chain companies, and the relationship of equal status of supply chain companies is most conducive to the government's implementation of PV subsidies.
However, lucrative government subsidies often lead to PV enterprises not paying attention to technological innovation and blind production. Therefore, to improve the efficiency of government subsidies, enhance the overall performance of the PV supply chain, and achieve the healthy and long-term development of the PV industry.
Some scholars have used data envelopment analysis and the Tobit model to analyze the relationship between the development of China's PV industry and government subsidies, and the study shows that government subsidies play an important role in improving the innovation efficiency of China's PV industry (Lin and Luan, 2020).
Results show that an increase of 0.1 yuan/kWh (~$0.014/kWh) in PV subsidies adds about 18 GW/year of installed capacity to the national PV market, right in the middle of previous estimates in the literature. From a different perspective, if China did not have any PV subsidies, the PV deployment market would virtually disappear.
