Therefore, the future development of photovoltaic equipment will focus on the following four points:
1. Silicon material purification equipment
The serious shortage of silicon materials cannot be solved. basically resolved in the near future. To reverse the situation, more than a dozen domestic high-purity silicon production projects that have been launched or have actual implementation actions require significant domestic equipment support to reduce production costs of high-purity silicon equipment. production of thousands of tonnes. it is urgent to make breakthroughs and be supplied in large quantities.
2. Large-Size Silicon Wafer Processing Equipment
Most of the current 125mm × 125mm silicon wafers in China are produced using 6-inch single-crystal furnaces to extract single crystals to meet the requirements. cell needsules of 156 mm × 156 mm. To meet the needs of wafer production, it is necessary to upgrade to an 8-inch monocrystalline furnace, but its production cost will be much higher than that of silicon wafers produced by polycrystalline ingot casting method, which is unacceptable for battery manufacturers. Therefore, 156mm × 156mm silicon wafers for photovoltaics will be replaced by polycrystalline silicon wafers and will be produced in polycrystalline silicon ingot furnaces, resulting in huge demand for casting, cutting equipment and other associated production equipment.
3. Thin-film solar cell production equipment
In order to further reduce battery production costs and improve cell conversion efficiency, research on silicon thin-film solar cells crystalline evolves with each dayur passing, and the development of amorphous silicon thin-film solar cells has also progressed by leaps and bounds, which provides unlimited development space for the development of related processing equipment.
4. Photovoltaic data collector
At present, it is mainly used in some small and medium-sized power plants. Large photovoltaic power plants mainly use industrial computers for local energy monitoring. station. The proportion of grid monitoring in photovoltaic power plants is still not high, mainly because companies do not pay much attention to after-sales service. In the management of grid-connected photovoltaic inverter manufacturing enterprises, the product research and development department urgently needs this monitoring data. However, sales and engineering personnelierie does not pay much attention to it, which leads to a small number of photovoltaic networks. monitoring facilities. Currently, there are nearly 100 photovoltaic plants under remote monitoring on the green power grid, and their number is increasing at a monthly growth rate of 50%.
Prospects on the evolution of the total installed capacity of photovoltaic equipment in China
In 2012, the installed capacity of photovoltaic equipment in China will reach more than 4 GW. The Chinese government has set a target. photovoltaic power generation capacity target installed in 2015 at 21 GW The solar energy industry is expected.
In 2012, the installed capacity of photovoltaic equipment in China will exceed 4 GW. According to an analysis by IMS Research, a British research institute, the prosperity of China's solar power industry is expected to bring "huge business opportunities" tosuppliers to the photovoltaic industry. China's latest five-year plan for the photovoltaic industry revealed that China's regulatory and planning agency, the National Development and Reform Commission, raised the photovoltaic power generation capacity target for 2015 by 15 GW to 21 GW.
