On May 24, the 16th (2023) International Solar Photovoltaic and Smart Energy (Shanghai) Conference and Exhibition was officially opened to the audience. On the opening day of the exhibition, ready-made goods exploded in popularity. In addition to the photovoltaic industry leaders, Tongwei, Longji, Jinko, Trina ,solarspace and so on joined, attracting more domestic and foreign exhibitors to visit.

Under the path of achieving carbon neutrality, by 2030, the global photovoltaic installed capacity needs to increase to nearly seven times that of 2020, and to further expand to nearly 20 times by 2050. GEIDCO: Under China's path to achieve carbon neutrality, by 2030, photovoltaic installed capacity needs to reach 4 times than 2020 year, and by 2050 it needs to reach nearly 13 times.

The development of photovoltaics has brought great opportunities for the development of chemicals and new materials industries. However, N-type TOPCon and heterojunction cells are more sensitive to water vapor, and POE or EPE films with better water vapor barrier properties are popular, which has led to a substantial increase in the demand for POE. It is estimated that the global PV POE demand will reach 410,000 in 2023 Ton. China still needs to import a large amount of EVA and POE, and domestic chemical companies are actively deploying production capacity.

EVA and POE have their own advantages and disadvantages. It can be seen from their performance comparison for photovoltaic films. Referring to the important development direction of film in the future, POE may develop a larger market space.

Our country's PV rolled patterned glass capacity was increased 50% in the January-August period of 2022. In recent years, China's photovoltaic industry scale and market application realize rapid development. In 2021, the output of polysilicon, silicon ,solar cells and modules, the main links of our photovoltaic industry chain, all increased year-on-year.
