The Current Situation and Development Trends of the Solar Photovoltaic Industry in China and the United States

Abstract

Climate change and environmental pollution have made clean energy increasingly valued, among which solar photovoltaic power generation occupies a pivotal position. In terms of the development of clean energy in the world today, major countries have mastered the core technology and occupied the main installed power generation capacity. China and the United States, the two major energy powers in the world, are also the major powers in the world today. They have completely different political systems and economic policies, and there are also many differences in the development of the solar photovoltaic power generation industry. This paper will conduct an in-depth comparative analysis of the development of the solar photovoltaic industry in China and the United States from the aspects of policy environment, key enterprises, development trends, etc., to more clearly reveal the differences and causes of the development of the solar photovoltaic industry between the two countries, and provide references for future cooperation and competition.
