In recent years, the global pv market after several ups and downs, general upward trend. According to the European Union for photovoltaic EPIA data, from 2000 to 2017, 320 times the global total installed capacity expansion, photovoltaic industry development speed ranks first in all kinds of renewable energy. As the industry development, continuously in the future, photovoltaic industry will face new opportunities and challenges.

the challenge for the development of photovoltaic industry:
( 1) Overseas trade barriers impact
since 2011, photovoltaic power plant industry in China from the United States, the European Union and other countries and regions, double the safeguard measures and trade. China's photovoltaic products exports in 2011 to 358. $2. 1 billion, of which exports to Europe, 56 of total exports. 5 of all exports accounted for 95%, exports to the us. Accounted for 7%, with more than 63%. According to the statistics shows that: in April of 2020, China's photovoltaic modules export shipments up to 6. 29 gw, total exports, 14. 1. 5 billion dollars. Europe is still the photovoltaic modules in China's largest export market, with shipments of 1636 in the Netherlands. 59 gigawatts, exports 3. 7. 1 billion dollars.

( 2) Industry support policy will gradually weaken the
in recent years, countries around the world to develop the photovoltaic power generation, industrial support policy of the governments have formulated to promote development of photovoltaic industry. But the government these promote the development of emerging industries, promoting the advancement of technology and product support policies such as feed-in tariff corresponding fiscal subsidies, etc. , most of the mechanism has been established gradually weakened.
( 3) Discard power brownouts and subsidy arrears problems
in recent years, China's western region development of photovoltaic (pv) discard electricity problems, power consumption and capacity to plan as a whole to solve the contradiction between eastern and western region. Discard power brownouts main reason is that mass concentration of photovoltaic (pv) online form conflict with western region of power grid construction lag, our country did not form the eastern, central and western synergy given market, in the western region given level is limited, the transmission channel construction lag, the existing power grid peak shaving capability and low flexibility, establish a mechanism of peak shaving ancillary services.
the development of the photovoltaic industry facing the opportunity:
( 1) The reform of the energy in
in China as the world's largest energy producers and consumers are faced with the plight of conventional energy sustainable supply capacity is insufficient. On the one hand, coal, oil and gas reservoir production in China than in 72, 17 respectively. 5 years and 38. 8 years, below the world average; On the other hand, with the rapid development of economy in our country, the rapid growth of energy demand in China, the energy consumption gradually increase. Therefore, to develop the photovoltaic power generation, wind power and other renewable clean energy is to improve energy supply structure in China, the support long-term sustainable development of the economy in our country and an important means to ensure national energy security.
according to forecast of joint European research center, by 2030, photovoltaic power generation in the world's total electricity supply will reach more than 10%; By 2040, photovoltaic power generation will account for more than 20% of electricity; By the end of the 21st century, the solar panels will account for more than 60%, as the main body of the human energy supply, photovoltaic power generation growth potential is tremendous.
( 2) Photovoltaic energy superiority
have the use of solar energy in every country in the world of vast land area, also belong to one of the country is rich in solar energy resources in our country. In our country is located in the northern hemisphere, the north and the south distance and distance 5000 km or more, two thirds of the land area annual sunshine hours 2200 hours, annual solar radiation amount is more than 5 billion kilojoules per square meter, has the advantages of the development of photovoltaic industry.
( 3) Photovoltaic technology drive costs down
cost reduction is an important power of pv industry growth. According to the empirical formula, every 1% increase battery conversion efficiency, which is 7% lower cost. With the improving of the industry technical content, the conversion efficiency of photovoltaic cells components continued ascension, photovoltaic power generation cost is falling fast.
