Solar Photovoltaic Power Generation Cooperation Plan

What is the IEA photovoltaic power systems programme?

The IEA Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme (IEA PVPS) is one of the TCPs within the IEA and was established in 1993. The mission of the programme is to “enhance the international collaborative efforts which facilitate the role of photovoltaic solar energy as a cornerstone in the transition to sustainable energy systems.”

Why is photovoltaic power generation important?

1. Introduction Photovoltaic power generation plays an important role in renewable energy and directly affects energy transition and sustainable development ( Han et al., 2022 ). It is inextricably linked to policy support for its development path, as photovoltaic power generation has started late and is not yet technologically mature.

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.

Who formulates policies on photovoltaic power generation?

Nevertheless, policies on photovoltaic power generation have been mainly formulated by a single department: the National Development and Reform Commission or the National Energy Administration. In addition, as shown in Fig. 1, before 2009, there were no multiple departments formulating or issuing policies without synergy between departments.

What is solar photovoltaic (PV) power?

The steady rise of solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation forms a vital part of this global energy transformation. In addition to fulfilling the Paris Agreement, renewables are crucial to reduce air pollution, improve health and well-being, and provide affordable energy access worldwide.

Do photovoltaic power generation policy synergies exist in China?

We quantitatively examine photovoltaic power generation policy synergies in China. This study expands the existing quantitative research on policy content analysis. China employs strong administrative power approaches, such as macro planning. Market-oriented approaches have not produced strong synergistic effects in China.
