1. Backed by the world's fastest growing regions, with a huge domestic market. The growth rate of China's PV industry in recent years has far exceeded the global average growth rate. National policies encourage development, China's severe environmental protection situation, and objectively need to find alternative energy sources, which have laid a good foundation for the development of the photovoltaic industry.
2. Leading the whole industry by international first-class photovoltaic enterprises, and forming a true strategic alliance with equipment companies. The demonstration effect is obvious, completely changing the development mode of equipment and process demand in the past. Equipment companies can directly synchronize process technology development, users. Really realize that without the support of domestic equipment, China's PV companies will lose the most important cost competitive advantage. Compared with the demand for equipment in the IC industry, the technical requirements for photovoltaic equipment are slightly lower, which is also the field of low-end equipment that domestic enterprises can make a lot of.
3. Have the price/performance advantage that foreign equipment can't match. Through several years of hard work, domestically produced equipment has been widely recognized by the local market and customers, and has received international attention, has a certain brand reputation, communicates with customers more easily and conveniently, and services are faster and can be compensated to a certain extent. Insufficient performance and reliability of early equipment.
4. China's PV industry chain has formed a scale and is gradually balanced. A good large industrial environment has given strong support to the development of equipment enterprises: industrial silicon production ranks first in the world; high-purity silicon production 100-ton technology has achieved breakthroughs, 1,000 tons The level of technology has dawned; the processing scale of silicon wafers has reached the world level; the battery and component industry has led the world's leading companies; the scale of solar lamps is the world's number one; the grid-connected power generation system is internationally renowned.
Increasing efficiency and reducing costs is a priority
The development goal of solar cell manufacturing equipment is to improve the final product quality, photoelectric conversion efficiency, whole line production efficiency and production cost of the battery. Therefore, the technical development of future equipment will always be carried out in the following aspects: improving the level of single machine automation, increasing the amount of batch loading, and improving the efficiency of single machine; automatic transfer of robots between devices, online detection, improving the production efficiency of the whole line, reducing labor Intervention, reduce the rate of debris; materialize more advanced technology into equipment, further improve the photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells, reduce the cost per watt; suitable for large size (from the current mainstream 125mm × 125mm and 156mm × 156mm silicon wafer to the future 210mm × 210mm silicon wafers, etc., thin silicon wafers (300μm - 270μm - 240μm - 200μm - 180μm) process, etc., to save silicon materials to reduce costs; with exhaust emission collection and processing equipment, reduce emissions and intermediate pollutant emissions, to meet More stringent environmental regulations.
