China China’s market is growing rapidly, increasing from 20 MW in 2007 to at least 3.5 GW in 2012, with one of the main drivers the implementation of a FIT in 2011.140 The value of the services market (excluding O&M) totaled around $1.6–$2.5 billion in 2012.141 The value of the services market is relatively small compared to other large markets, due to the low installation costs in China. Project development and EPC services in China are primarily provided by Chinese firms, with many project developers providing in-house EPC in order to ensure quality. Chinese module suppliers are also increasingly providing EPC services in China.142 There is, however, some participation in the Chinese market by foreign firms. German firm Wirsol Solar, for example, announced plans to develop PV projects in China with Suntech.143 France-based SunPower formed a joint venture to manufacture and install its systems in China.144 U.S.-based First Solar is awaiting approval to build a 30 MW project in China and has a memorandum of understanding to develop a 300 to 500 MW second phase of the project.145 U.S.-based Solaria, which is also an equipment producer, provides construction services for projects in China.146 Germany Germany is the leader in global cumulative installed PV capacity, accounting for 35 percent of cumulative global installations through the end of 2011. 147 Annual installations increased from 1.3 GW in 2007 to 7.4 GW in 2010, but have been relatively flat since 2010 (figure 3.11). In 2011, installations totaled 7.5 GW and in 2012, installations totaled 7.6 GW.148 The value of the German PV services market totaled an estimated $5 billion in 2011.149 The main drivers of German demand are a FIT and the declining price of PV installations, which has continued to make system installation profitable and propel market growth despite cuts to FIT rates.150 Germany has a large services industry, with three of the top six global EPC services firms in 2012 based in Germany (BELECTRIC, juwi, and Enerparc).151 It is likely that these three firms are also among the leading global O&M service providers, with more than 140 Solarbuzz, “China’s Feed-in Tariff,” October 10, 2011; Energy Foundation and CREIA, China Solar, April 2013, 5–6; EPIA, Global Outlook for Photovoltaics until 2016, May 2012, 67. 141 USITC calculation based on data from Energy Foundation and CREIA, China Solar, April 2013, 5– 6, 66–68, and BNEF database (accessed May 28, 2013). 142 Industry representative, interview by USITC staff, Beijing, May 17, 2013; Bloomberg New Energy Finance database (accessed May 28, 2013); Solar Industry, “Jinko Solar Planning 200 MW PV Project,” December 20, 2012. 143 Ali-Oettinger, “China: Wirsol to Develop Projects with Suntech,” March 29, 2012. 144 SunPower Corp., “SunPower Signs,” December 3, 2012. 145 Wesoff, “First Solar’s Q1,” May 6, 2013. 146 Alexopoulou, “Solaria Corporation to Construct,” May 13, 2013. 147 EPIA, Global Outlook for Photovoltaics until 2016, May 2012, 68–69. 148 EPIA, Global Outlook for Photovoltaics until 2016, May 2012, 66–67; BSW-Solar, “Statistic Data,” February 2013, 1. 149 Based on calculation by USITC.
