PV companies strive to survive China-EU dispute
"We are focusing on the domestic market by promoting ground power stations, rooftop 'power plants' and household power plants for more customers," said Zhou Guangyan, president of Linuo.
Zhou said residential customers can profit by selling household-generated power to utility companies.
According to a report released by the National Energy Administration last August, China will have 21 million kilowatts of installed solar power generation capacity by 2015, six times more than the current amount.
The government also hopes to boost the share of distributed PV power plants as part of the country's total installed PV power capacity to 50 percent this year.
"This is the right choice for us, as China's PV generation capacity is still in its infancy compared with the massive consumption of conventional energy," Zhou said.
"We are still confident in China's PV industry, as we will get past temporary overcapacity and overexpansion by seizing the domestic market," said Huang Ming, chairman of China Himin Solar Co Ltd.
