This article aims to provide insight into the solar PV industry and the surrounding policy context, focusing on the manufacturing phase and its climate impact.
However, this growth has followed a very erratic path. This study identifies policies issued through this period for a closer look on the impact of these policies to the solar photovoltaic (SPV) industry development in China. This paper examines five stages in China's SPV policy from mid-1990s to 2019.
China's rapidly growing PV industry greatly benefited from the domestic supportive polices. Hence, maintaining stable policy framework and expectations is pivotal for market development . This paper delves into the evolution of solar PV policies in China over the past two decades.
A simplified analysis concludes on the suitability of the PV manufacturing process today and indicates the opportunities for the net-zero transition in the future. While the focus is on the carbon impacts of the solar PV industry, the authors also identify other relevant aspects (such as circularity), laying the ground for a future research.
In 2022, global solar PV manufacturing capacity increased by over 70% to reach almost 450 GW, with China accounting for over 95% of new facilities throughout the supply chain. The latest IEA data indicate that current (2024) module manufacturing capacity in China exceeds 800 GW .
Within the context of China, studies have analyzed the cost-effectiveness of distributed solar PV, highlighting how improper policy can hinder PV development, and assessing the economic performance of distributed PV policies [40, 41, 46].
With a burgeoning demand for PV systems on the horizon, there is an urgent need to reassess past policies and chart new directions. This study employs bibliometrics and content analysis to systematically scrutinize China's PV policies across distinct phases, delineating the underlying rationale and overarching evolutionary trajectory.

This annual report, developed under IEA PVPS Task 1, provides a comprehensive overview of Italy's photovoltaic (PV) market, including installation data, policy frameworks, industry developments, and future prospects.
Photovoltaics represent one of the renewable energy sources the country relies the most on. Italy has registered a seven-fold increase in the number of photovoltaic systems since 2010, reaching over 1.2 million in 2022. That year, Lombardy and Veneto were the regions contributing the most to this sector's growth.
This expected growth of photovoltaic manufacturers is considered a positive element for the Italian photovoltaic industry. However, the achievement of new national targets by 2030 – a total installed PV capacity of 80 GW - is expected to bring further positive effects on the Italian photovoltaic industry sector.
The IEA Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme (IEA PVPS) is one of the TCP's within the IEA and was established in 1993. The mission of the programme is to “enhance the international collaborative efforts which facilitate the role of photovoltaic solar energy as a cornerstone in the transition to sustainable energy systems.”
Photovoltaic power generation systems mainly use the maximum power tracking (MPPT) controller to adjust the voltage and current of the solar cells in the photovoltaic array, so that the photovoltaic array runs at the maximum power point (MPP) to achieve the purpose of maximum power. Photovoltaic power generation systems mainly use the maximum power tracking (MPPT) controller to adjust the voltage and current of the solar cells in the photovoltaic array, so that the photovoltaic array runs at the maximum power point (MPP) to achieve the purpose of maximum power.
