In recent years, China's photovoltaic industry is very different every year. Under the support of national policies, products and technologies have been leaps and bounds. Over the past decade, the net importing countries of silicon materials have become the “manufacturing powers” and “applications”. The big country has also created a lot of "the world's most photovoltaic industry". Today, I will share with you some of the world's best in the photovoltaic industry.
The largest solar photovoltaic market - China
Since 2015, the cumulative installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation in China has been the largest in the world every year. In 2017, domestic PV realized a new installed capacity of 53GW, an increase of 53.45%. This is also the fast-growing installed capacity of the high base of 34.54GW in 2016. In terms of subdivision, the distributed PV installed capacity in 2017 was 19.44GW, an increase of nearly 3.6 times compared with the same period of last year. The CCID think tank report shows that in 2017, China's new installed capacity exceeded 50GW, accounting for half of the world's new installed capacity.
China's new installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation has been the world's number one for five consecutive years. The cumulative installed capacity has ranked first in the world for three consecutive years, achieving the autonomy of the entire industry chain and a strong global market competitiveness.
In the field of technology, Apple is at the cutting edge of the industry, and in the field of environmental protection, Apple is not far behind. Apple's headquarters building "ApplePark" is built entirely from renewable energy. The top of the ring is completely covered by solar panels. This is the world's largest solar roof photovoltaic power station building with a total installed capacity of 17MW. The daily electricity consumption of the building is also 100% provided by this rooftop power station, which also practices Apple's long-standing environmental philosophy.
The world's largest solar boat - Turano
The Turano is the world record holder. It successfully completed an 18-month round-the-world voyage in 2012, and the ship also successfully crowned the world's largest solar boat. The $26 million twin-body solar captain is 101 feet (about 30.7 meters) wide and 49 feet wide (about 15 meters). The $26 million twin-body solar captain is 101 feet (about 30.7 meters) wide. Feet (approximately 15 meters) for up to 50 passengers. The 537-square-meter solar panels covered by the ship were driven by it.
