China’s new PV industry standards unlikely to resolve overcapacity pv magazine spoke with two OPIS analysts about China’s new mandatory energy consumption and efficiency standards for the solar sector, which aim to address overcapacity but are unlikely to resolve supply-demand imbalances alone. They said the measures could accelerate the phaseout of outdated capacity and support higher-quality manufacturing, but their impact on operating capacity, module prices and industry consolidation is expected to remain limited in the near term.
