Photovoltaic companies in Hebei want to take a beach in the Japanese market

The Japan Photovoltaic Subsidy Act will be implemented on July 1 from July 1. Japan's domestic PV subsidy bill will be formally implemented. According to this Act, in the next 20 years, the country’s power companies must ensure that the acquisition of electricity generated by households and companies using solar energy, its subsidy for the Internet is set at 42 yen / kWh, or about 3.36 yuan / kWh. On June 26th, the reporter interviewed Yinli and Jing'ao photovoltaic companies in the province and learned that related companies had set up branch offices or regional headquarters in Japan and took the first step in seizing Japan's photovoltaic market. After experiencing the “double reverse” subsidy survey in the United States, will photovoltaic companies in our province seize the Japanese PV market?

Subsidy prices are high, and Japan's photovoltaic market is attractive. It is understood that the U.S. government is considering implementing an anti-dumping tariff rate of up to 249.96% for Chinese PV companies. Once it is adopted and finally implemented in October, it may force Chinese PV companies to withdraw from the United States. In the market, photovoltaic companies in our province are currently looking for an alternative market. “The Japanese government has announced quite a considerable amount of subsidized electricity prices for the Internet. This electricity price is indeed somewhat unexpected. Subsidy prices are nearly twice as high as those of Europe, the largest photovoltaic country in Europe. We hope to account for a certain share in the Japanese market.” Yingli Green Energy Holdings Wang Yuhan, deputy general manager of the company's sales company, said.

According to industry experts, this subsidy measure came from the "Special Measures on the Procurement of Renewable Energy for Electrical Appliances" passed by Japan in August last year. The core of the subsidy measure is the "fixed price buying system", which stipulates that the power company is obliged to do so. In accordance with the fixed prices set by the country, purchase renewable energy power, in order to encourage more companies or individuals to use renewable energy to generate electricity, as soon as possible to form a certain industrial scale.

There have been industry experts predicting that the subsidy price in Japan’s power generation market may be set at “38 yen/kWh for electricity purchases in 15 years.” In view of this, the bill to be implemented soon will not only slightly extend the time limit for power generation subsidies, but also subsidy prices are higher than market expectations. “Once this subsidy price is implemented, it will be very powerful for Japan's photovoltaic power generation market. It is estimated that the installed capacity will be as high as 3.2 GW, compared with 1 GW installed capacity in Japan in the past one year.” Wang Yi Han said that these installation capacities mean global photovoltaic The industry will add more than $9 billion in the market.
