6 Photovoltaic - Opportunities and Risks Annual Cost Reduction of Module Fast Increasing Global Installation Grid Integration is Future Issue Global Accumulative Installation (GW) Manufacturing cost of traditional crystalline modules is continuously decreasing. In last 5 years, China Top level manufacturers have reduced cost by more than 50%. In next 3 years, they will endeavor to reduce by 30% more. Source:GTM Research , China PV new installation reached 11.3GW, which is the largest one in the world. Japan is No. 2 with new installation of 6.9GW; USA is the third one with 4.75GW. In 2014, planned new installation of China is 14 GW, of which 8GW is distributed PV Plants. China major energy base is in west area, while the main load is in east coastal area. Energy yield in northwest PV plants is even much more than local consumption. How to transmit solar power to consumers thousands miles away is the largest challenge to existing power system.
