View more6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic power generation solar energy prices and China]
How much will PV electricity cost in China by 2015?
According to our analysis, if electricity prices of the provinces remain unchanged, the cost of PV electricity could be reduced to 0.52–1.22 RMB/kWh by 2015, which is comparable with the grid prices in regions with large PV capacity and high electricity prices, such as Guangdong, Beijing, and Shanghai.
Is China a major market for solar photovoltaics?
Nature Energy 4, 709–717 (2019) Cite this article In recent years, China has become not just a large producer but a major market for solar photovoltaics (PV), increasing interest in solar electricity prices in China.
Can photovoltaic electricity be compared to grid prices in China?
Although solar photovoltaic use grows rapidly in China, comparison with grid prices is difficult as photovoltaic electricity prices depend on local factors. Using prefecture-level data, Yan et al. find that 100% of user-side systems can achieve grid parity, while 22% can produce electricity cheaper than coal-based power plants.
How much does solar power cost in China?
In particular, in the economically developed eastern provinces (e.g. Shanghai, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Guangdong etc.), the PV electricity (mainly BIPV) is 0.67–0.86 RMB/kWh. The cost of LSPV stations ranges from 0.45 to 0.75 RMB/kWh, lower than the BIPV system owing to the scale effect and the strong solar radiation.
Does China have a large-scale consumption of PV power generation?
However, our conclusions have policy implications for the large-scale consumption of PV power generation in China and other countries. In 2014, China's PV cumulative installed capacity reached 28.05 GW. Currently, supportive policies in China focus on the national level.
Does China have a price threshold for solar power?
The cost of solar PV electricity generation is affected by many local factors, making it a challenge to understand whether China has reached the threshold at which a grid-connected solar PV system supplies electricity to the end user at the same price as grid-supplied power or the price of desulfurized coal electricity, or even lower.
