6 FAQs about [Solar Photovoltaic Panels Foreign Trade]
How does international trade affect solar PV technology?
Consequently, the increase in the global supply of solar PV panels, which exceeds the global demand, lowers the final price for such products in all global markets. This finding suggests that international trade could lead to further price reductions, thus fostering the development and deployment of solar PV technology.
Why is the global solar PV product trade important?
The global solar PV product trade plays an important role in facilitating PV product production and utilization and in mitigating climate change. Traded solar cells and modules in 2017 could generate 2325.25 TWh of electricity over their 30-year lifetimes.
What happens if new countries join the global solar PV market?
When new countries join the global solar PV market, the total production capacity scales up, implying an increase of the global supply of solar PV panels, which exceeds the global demand and subsequently lowers the final price for such products in all global markets (Kirkegaard et al., 2010).
How can Korea improve its trade status in solar photovoltaic products?
Korea should continue to maintain the positive momentum of technological and scientific innovation, improve its technology, and optimize its products, thereby expanding its trade advantages, improving and upgrading its trade status, and striving to secure its position in the market of solar photovoltaic products.
Which countries dominate the global solar PV market?
The global solar PV industry is dominated by the key markets such as Germany, China, Japan and the United States (Kirkegaard et al., 2010). China has become the leading producer and player in the global solar PV market since 2010, with a substantial share of global trade (Algieri, Aquino, & Succurro, 2011).
How does trade barrier affect solar PV products?
However, the overall impacts of trade barrier on PV goods cause the global carbon emission reduction potential to decrease. The global solar PV product trade plays an important role in facilitating PV product production and utilization and in mitigating climate change.
