# Industry Insight | How China’s PV Leaders Should Go Global in the Post-Pandemic Era

_Unique Research · Insight · March 28, 2023 · Full rewrite — not a stub_

Solar PV converts sunlight to electricity — clean, renewable, long-lived, low maintenance. Population growth + net-zero policy → structural demand. China’s tech lead makes “PV going global” a new national brand card.

**Global market.** Precedence Research: 2023 PV market ~$176.4B → >$250.63B by 2030 (CAGR 5.1% 2022–30). SolarPower Europe _Global Market Outlook 2022–2026_: from 2021 solar again largest new power source — 56% of >300 GW new renewables (=167.8 GW grid-connected); more than all other renewables combined that year. Report ranks top-10 absolute markets and top-20 growth markets 2022–26. Top absolute markets China/US/India; yet none make top-10 per-capita (Australia / Netherlands / Germany lead). Europe = key battlefield ahead.

**China export card.** CPIA: 2022 PV product exports (wafers/cells/modules) >**$51.2B** (+80.3% YoY); modules >153 GW (+55.8%) — supporting domestic and global clean-energy demand. Every continent grew; Europe +114.9% YoY — largest regional jump. Wafers/cells mostly Asia; Netherlands #1 module destination; Poland and Portugal enter top-10.

**Named players & “correct” go-global.** JinkoSolar IR Wei Tian (People’s Daily Overseas): modules to 3,000+ customers in 160+ countries/regions. Thesis for peers (LONGi, Trina, JA Solar et al.): localize compliance, financing, EPC partnerships and after-sales — not dump capacity. Europe/US policy (IRA, CBAM, anti-dumping) + local-content rules force deeper local manufacture / JVs. Post-pandemic logistics/finance normalization rewards firms that already built overseas bases and service networks.
