China is the most cost-competitive location to manufacture all components of the solar PV supply chain. Costs in China are 10% lower than in India, 20% lower than in the United States, and 35% lower than in Europe. Large variations in energy, labour, investment and overhead costs explain these differences.
Chinese companies have been subject to US and EU tariffs for dumping solar panels on the international market since 2012 and 2013, respectively. But the impact on China’s growing global.
After a more than year-long investigation, federal officials have concluded that five Chinese solar panel companies have been skirting US tariff laws by routing their operations through four.
The European Union has launched investigations into two groups of companies that include Chinese solar panel makers in the latest salvo against what it suspects is unfair competition from.

6 FAQs about [Chinese solar photovoltaic panels in foreign countries]
Where are Chinese solar PV manufacturers located?
Three-quarters of Chinese overseas solar PV manufacturing capacity is concentrated in the Southeast Asian countries of Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam, but other countries such as India and Turkey are becoming increasingly attractive to manufacturers due to the proximity to emerging solar markets.
Does China make solar panels?
China has invested over USD 50 billion in new PV supply capacity – ten times more than Europe − and created more than 300 000 manufacturing jobs across the solar PV value chain since 2011. Today, China’s share in all the manufacturing stages of solar panels (such as polysilicon, ingots, wafers, cells and modules) exceeds 80%.
Are Chinese solar photovoltaic (PV) companies engaged in overseas activities?
We find that Chinese solar photovoltaic (PV) firms are primarily engaging in downstream activities overseas, along with some manufacturing activities, and minimal upstream activities. We also find that there are opportunities for technology transfer within all segments of the solar value chain characterizing overseas activities.
Which solar PV manufacturers can compete with China?
The only other solar PV manufacturers from other countries that can compete with China on scale are Hanwha Q Cells and LG Electronics from the Republic of Korea and First Solar in the United States.
What are China's solar PV exports?
In 2021, the value of China’s solar PV exports was over USD 30 billion, almost 7% of China’s trade surplus over the last five years. In addition, Chinese investments in Malaysia and Viet Nam also made these countries major exporters of PV products, accounting for around 10% and 5% respectively of their trade surpluses since 2017.
Why is China leading the world in solar PV technology?
China leads the world in manufacturing solar PV technology. The number of countries importing solar PV technology from China is increasing. Chinese solar PV firms are primarily engaging in downstream activities overseas. There are opportunities for technology transfer within all segments of the solar value chain.
