Solar PV cumulative installation in China (Xu, 2023). While China has made significant strides in leading the global development and deployment of solar photovoltaic (PV) technology, there is currently no distinct obligation for handling the waste generated by the end-of-life of solar PV installations.
However, based on the limited studies on China’s solar PV policies, the literature only lists China’s existing PV solar policies , , which cannot explain the dynamic trajectory of Chinese solar policy and its relation to the development of the industry.
BEIJING, Nov 20 (Reuters) - China's industry ministry on Wednesday finalised investment guidelines for solar photovoltaic (PV) manufacturing projects in an effort to rein in overcapacity, according to a notice on the ministry website. The guidelines direct companies to ensure a minimum capital ratio of 30% for solar PV projects.
China is a quick policy learner that can follow the international policy experience and import them to China. However, Chinese PV solar policy is lack of strategic policy research. For example, the policies that had been launched were mostly made without the guidance of national energy portfolio strategy.
The National Energy Administration of China reported that the country's aggregate solar PV capacity was 43.2 GW in 2015, which climbed to 253 GW by 2020 and surged to 392.6 GW by 2022, as illustrated in Figure-7 (Xu, 2023). Fig. 7. Solar PV cumulative installation in China (Xu, 2023).
The installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in China has experienced substantial expansion. The National Energy Administration of China reported that the country's aggregate solar PV capacity was 43.2 GW in 2015, which climbed to 253 GW by 2020 and surged to 392.6 GW by 2022, as illustrated in Figure-7 (Xu, 2023).

Rumors boost Chinese solar stocks amid Beijing supply constraints.
Stocks like Xinyi Solar, GCL Technology Holdings, Longi Green Energy Technology, and Sungrow Power Supply experienced significant gains in response to the speculation. Potential Impact of New Regulations. Industry insiders believe that the rumored regulations, if implemented, could have a positive impact on the solar PV industry.
