Favorable policies for solar photovoltaic power generation

What are the main policies for PV power generation?

In the operation phase, electricity sales policies are the main policies. Government supports different forms of PV power generation projects at different stages according to its policy orientation. In the future, policies should focus on the distributed PV power generation, rather than on concentrated PV power.

Should PV application policy focus on concentrated PV power generation?

In the future, policies should focus on the distributed PV power generation, rather than on concentrated PV power. The experience of developing PV application policy in China has a few implications for the future policy. First of all, it is better to balance supply-type, demand-type and environment-type policies.

Are photovoltaic power generation policies effective?

Existing qualitative research on photovoltaic power generation policies has preferred sorting, summarizing, and performing comparative analyses of policies, focusing on their effectiveness and efficiency. Meanwhile, policy synergies have been ignored when studying the effectiveness of photovoltaic power generation policies.

What are the policy goals of photovoltaic power generation?

The policy goals of photovoltaic power generation are divided into three aspects: improving technology and promoting production, promoting construction and application, and guaranteeing and maintaining application effects.

What is the policy strength of the photovoltaic industry?

The policy strength of the photovoltaic industry includes national-level policy strength and regional policy strength. The regional policy strength will be given the weight on the proportion of the regional PV installed capacity in the China’s PV installed capacity. The regression results are shown in Table 3, Table 4, Table 5 and Table 6. Table 3.

What policies support solar generation?

Policies to support solar deployment should reward generation, not investment; should not provide greater subsidies to residential generators than to utility-scale generators; and should avoid the use of tax credits. State renewable portfolio standard (RPS) programs provide important support for solar generation.
