6 FAQs about [China-Europe New Solar Cell Project]
How many solar modules will Europe produce in 2021?
InfoLink forecasts that European module demand will reach 49-55 GW this year. In September 2020, Europe launched the Solar Industrial Programme to accelerate the implementation of solar PV component manufacturing projects. In 2021, the “European Solar Initiative” was created, aiming to create 20 GW of solar module production capacity by 2025.
Does China Export solar modules to Europe?
This is encouraging, but another fact is worrying: China's exports of solar modules to Europe in the first four months of 2022 were 2.5 times higher compared to 2021. In April alone, nearly 8 GW of solar modules worth more than €2 billion were imported from China into Europe.
Why are Chinese solar panels being shipped to Europe?
Tough tariffs against Chinese imports in the US means that most excess panels are shipped to Europe. Xuyang Dong of Climate Energy Finance, an Australian think-tank, said that “China’s estimated wafer, cell and module capacity that will come online in 2024 is sufficient to meet annual global demand now through to 2032.
How will the EU Solar Strategy be implemented in 2021?
In 2021, the “European Solar Initiative” was created, aiming to create 20 GW of solar module production capacity by 2025. We need to think in great detail about how the EU Solar Strategy will be implemented – the financing of planned measures through the EU Solar PV Alliance and other possible instruments.
Can Europe produce a solar power plant?
Even though the cost of producing a solar power plant in the EU is around 20% higher than in China due to higher energy costs and higher wages, EU policy makers need to find ways to produce solar power plants in Europe.
Which solar projects have been funded by the Innovation Fund?
It is the largest grant since the launch of the Innovation Fund in 2020, which has so far funded €12 billion worth of projects. Among the solar manufacturing projects awarded are a 1.5GW heterojunction module assembly line from Chinese solar manufacturer Trina Solar in Spain, and Italian solar manufacturer FuturaSun.
