Given the dramatically changing environment, technology transfer, market fluctuation, policy incentives, and trade protectionism altogether would reshape the comparative advantage of China''s solar PV products. This study suggests that internal factors, especially regional industrial relatedness, is still crucial for cities to convert to PV production. On the one
Under the background of global energy transformation and structural
According to the United Nations trade database (UN comtrade) database, the trade in solar PV products shows an overall rising trend for CPTPP countries, with exports rising from US$10,931.87 million in 2007 to US$2,6699.25 million in 2021, with an annual growth rate of 144.23%; and imports rising from US$9072 million to US$22510.83 million in
In the context of the global push towards a green economy, this research investigates the impact of green trade barriers on the export trade volume of Chinese photovoltaic products to ASEAN from 2010 to 2021. The strong evidence indicates that green trade barriers have a positive effect on improving the export trade volume of Chinese photovoltaic products
By the end of 2022, the European Union (EU) had become the second-largest market in terms
Against the backdrop of global energy transition and the imperative for sustainable development, the trade dynamics of solar photovoltaic (PV) products among "Belt and Road Initiative (BRI)" countries gained momentum. This study investigates the evolving trade patterns of PV products within BRI nations, alongside the underlying determinants. The paper
Based on bilateral PV trade data, complex network methods and exponential random graph models (ERGM), this paper constructs global PV trade networks (PVTNs) during 2000–2019, describes detailed evolution features and verifies the influencing factors of
By the end of 2022, the European Union (EU) had become the second-largest market in terms of cumulative and annual PV capacity, following China. Notably, four individual European markets, namely Spain, Germany, Poland, and the Netherlands ranked in the top 10 for annual installations, holding positions 5, 6, 8, and 10, respectively1.
According to the United Nations trade database (UN comtrade) database, the trade in solar PV products shows an overall rising trend for CPTPP countries, with exports rising from US$10,931.87 million in 2007 to
Under the background of global energy transformation and structural upgrading, the development of solar photovoltaic industry in various countries has been paid attention to, and solar photovoltaic products occupy an important position in the international trade of
Based on bilateral PV trade data, complex network methods and exponential
1839: Photovoltaic Effect Discovered: Becquerel''s initial discovery is serendipitous; he is only 19 years old when he observes the photovoltaic effect. 1883: First Solar Cell: Fritts'' solar cell, made of selenium and gold, boasts an efficiency of only 1-2%, yet it marks the birth of practical solar technology. 1905: Einstein''s Photoelectric Effect: Einstein''s explanation of the
Putting the world on a path to reaching net zero emissions requires solar PV to expand globally on an even greater scale, raising concerns about security of manufacturing supply for achieving such rapid growth rates – but also offering new opportunities for diversification.
Solar PV enables the conversion of solar energy into electricity and has become a clean energy technology for economic development. The advantages and disadvantages of solar photovoltaic vary
This report by the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) looks at how open, transparent and inclusive trade policies can support cost reductions, deployment of components and job creation in the solar PV sector, strengthening the critical infrastructure needed to fight the COVID-19 pandemic and
trade and industrial cooperation of solar photovoltaic products, which has attracted global attention. Therefore, based on the background of RCEP, it is of practical signicance to analyze the development and export competitiveness of solar energy products in the agreement countries. This paper uses TOPSIS to establish a comprehensive evaluation
This paper uses TOPSIS to establish a comprehensive evaluation index system for the international competitiveness of solar photovoltaic products to study the international competitiveness of solar photovoltaic products in China, Japan, and Korea under the context of
products, known as the "new three drivers" of China''s foreign trade. As a crucial means of generating clean energy, photovoltaic products hold considerable development potential (Zhu et al., 2021), have even been identified by the National Development and Reform Commission''s Energy Research Institute as a crucial tool for stabilizing China''s foreign trade and boosting
ice system and revert to tariffs. This paper gives a brief historical review of the global PV trade dispute, and analyses the formal and legal grounding of anti-circumvention actions, which in...
Trade specialisation in solar photovoltaics is examined using an index analysis. Trade of the US, UK and Germany has an intra-industry nature. Trade of Italy, Greece and Japan is more inter-industry oriented. There is a long-run relationship between PV exports, foreign income and prices.
Some focused on specific PV products such as silicon feedstocks, photovoltaic cells, and photovoltaic modules, or just broadly mixing PV into solar energy (Algieri et al. 2011; Yang et al. 2015b). However, these studies failed to capture the complexity and comprehensiveness of PV trade, largely due to the lack of a global perspective and the
momentum. This study investigates the evolving trade patterns of PV prod-ucts within BRI nations, alongside the underlying determinants. T. e paper constructs and analyzes a solar PV product trade network, elucidating evolution.
