Centralized Photovoltaics
Welcome to the Polar Star Solar Photovoltaic Network, your go-to source for information related to centralized photovoltaics. Here, you can quickly catch up on the latest developments in the field. For more details about centralized photovoltaics, please follow our updates.
Recent Reports and Trends
Approximately 6,352 results have been found regarding centralized photovoltaics. The recent “14th Five-Year Plan” includes reports on solar and wind projects, primarily focusing on centralized photovoltaic installations, along with some distributed photovoltaic projects and offshore photovoltaic initiatives.
The wind energy situation mirrors that of solar, with a primary focus on land-based centralized wind projects. This also includes distributed wind projects initiated in regions such as Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, and Shaanxi, but excludes offshore wind projects.
Market Analysis
A recent analysis by InfoLink Consulting indicates that as of March 19, 2025, the price of 182-210mm TOPCon modules for centralized projects in China remains stable at 0.69 yuan/w. In contrast, the price for distributed projects is slightly higher at 0.73 yuan/w, reflecting a week-on-week increase of 2.82%.
The price for 2.0mm coated photovoltaic glass is quoted at 13 yuan/m², while 3.2mm coated photovoltaic glass is priced at 21 yuan/m². The cost of 2.0mm backsheet glass is 14 yuan/m².
New Policies and Regulations
On March 14, 2025, a new pricing policy for grid-connected electricity was implemented in China, which mandates that centralized projects must also participate in market transactions. This is expected to have a significant impact on the sector. Even with the new trading regulations, centralized installations are projected to progress as planned, adhering to the timelines set forth in the “14th Five-Year Plan” and other major projects.
Investment Opportunities
In Inner Mongolia, a green power project for industrial parks requires centralized renewable energy projects to have a minimum capacity of 50,000 kW and connect to voltage levels of 110 kV (or 66 kV) or higher.
Additionally, on March 14, 2025, the Shandong Zichuan District announced the third list of projects for grid-parity photovoltaic systems, with plans for three commercial distributed photovoltaic projects set to commence in March 2025.
Supply Chain Insights
A report covering the period from March 5 to March 12, 2025, shows that the prices for centralized projects using 182-210mm TOPCon modules have risen to 0.69 yuan/w, while those for distributed projects have reached 0.71 yuan/w, marking increases of 1.47% and 2.9%, respectively.
Emerging Technologies
Recently, AiXu announced the global delivery of their third-generation “Black Hole” series modules, which significantly enhance the economic returns of centralized power plants. Their N-type ABC modules have achieved a production efficiency of 24.6% and have maintained the top spot in global efficiency rankings for 24 consecutive months.
Conclusion
As the photovoltaic industry continues to evolve rapidly, the application of flexible mounting systems is expanding, catering to various setups from small distributed systems to large centralized solar power plants. The market’s adaptability is essential for maximizing the potential of renewable energy.
