6 FAQs about [China s government subsidy policy for solar panels]

Do government subsidies improve the innovation efficiency of China's PV industry?

Some scholars have used data envelopment analysis and the Tobit model to analyze the relationship between the development of China's PV industry and government subsidies, and the study shows that government subsidies play an important role in improving the innovation efficiency of China's PV industry (Lin and Luan, 2020).

Does China have a PV generation subsidy phase-out policy?

To test our argument, we use the case of the PV generation subsidy phase-out policy in China. China is the world's largest PV market, and the household PV industry has heavily relied on subsidy-based business models (Xiong and Yang, 2016).

How did China's solar subsidy phase-out affect energy consumption?

The announcement of subsidy phase-out led to a larger energy “rebound effect”. They adjusted electricity usage patterns to maximize revenue from solar electricity. With the impending post-subsidy era, the Chinese government has initiated significant reductions in household photovoltaic (PV) subsidies.

Does Chinese government subsidy guide the investment of emerging industries?

As to the domestic researchers in China, Guo and He (2011) investigated on the emerging industries and found out that the subsidy of Chinese government did not guide the investment of industry very well, and more improvements are needed in setting subsidy target, method and process.

What are governmental subsidies in China?

Recently, governments in China provide a large scale of subsidies to enterprises in their regions to accelerate the local economy development. The governmental subsidies in China include Value Added Tax (VAT) return, financial subsidies and taxation incentive.

How much subsidy do solar panels get in Tianjin?

Since 2018, households that choose to adopt solar panels receive a subsidy of only 0.37 RMB/kWh for each kilowatt-hour of PV power generated. The electricity price for residents in Tianjin is 0.49 RMB/kWh. The reduced subsidy of 0.05 RMB/kWh accounts for nearly 10% of the electricity price, indicating a substantial reduction in the subsidy.
