The Analysis Of Chinese Solar Photovoltaic Industrial Policy And Its Performance

Since the limitation of traditional fossil fuels becomes much more obvious,solar energy,due to the enduring availability,rich reserve and friendly to the environment,has become one of the preferred clean energy sources.As a strategic emerging industry,which is fragile,the solar photovoltaic industry can hardly survive without support from the government policies.In rencent years,Chinese government has successively launched series of policies to boost the development of solar photovoltaic industry.However,many issues remain to be discussed,for example,whether the objective of the industrial policies are reasonable,whether the expected objectives are fully reached,and what problems might meet in the implementation process of these industrial policies,etc.In this paper,documentary research method,dynamic research method,quantitative and qualitative research method are used to solve the issues above.Firstly,the development and current situation of solar photovoltaic industry in our country is elaborated,concluded from which three shortcomings during this development process are summarized.Secondly,based on the different development stage of solar photovoltaic industry,the evolution of the policies is discussed;the policies published between 2006 and 2014 are sorted and classified;three categories of polices—fiscal subsidies,tax relief and on-grid power tariff are thoroughly studied.Thirdly,the impact mechanism and functional process of industrial policies on solar photovoltaic industry are analyzed,and the influence factors of the effectiveness of industrial policies are further analyzed.Finally,the second order DEA-Tobit model is used to empirically analyze the performance of Chinese solar photovoltaic industrial policies,and the influencing degree of industrial policies on Chinese solar photovoltaic industry is indicated.According to the empirical results,the conclusions are drawn:Chinese photovoltaic industrial policy has not reached the expected results and the prosperity of Chinese photovoltaic industry is mainly dependent on overseas demand market.And based on this,the policy recommendations are presented.
