[SMM PV] Zhejiang PV Enterprises Actively Respond to Export Tax Rebate Cancellation, Accelerating Global Expansion
Another report in People’s Daily today focused on the response strategies of Zhejiang’s PV industry. Zhejiang’s PV industry ranks among the top nationwide in scale and grid-connected installations, and its enterprises are accelerating the transformation from “product going global” to “brand going global” and “capacity going global.” Chint New Energy stated that it secured a large PV+ESS project in Turkey in March this year, with all modules supplied by its local factory in Turkey, and provided a full-chain one-stop solution covering modules, ESS, and construction. AIKO believes that the cancellation of export tax rebates marks the PV industry’s entry into the era of “value going global,” and the key lies in accelerating the exit of outdated capacity. The cancellation of export tax rebates will prompt PV enterprises to gradually shift from low-price competition to technological upgrading, continuously driving their products toward high quality and high efficiency.
