Exemption of bifacial cell technology from Section 201 measures to accelerate switch from mono to bifacial cell lines outside of China and drive demand in the United StatesJune 17, 2019On 13 June 2019, United States Federal trade authorities ruled that bifacial solar modules will be exempt from Section 201 tariffs, as outlined in a notice from the Office of the United States Trade Representative. The ruling will dramatically increase demand for bifacial solar modules in the United States due to the opportunity of avoiding tariff rates of 15% to 25% through February 2022, in addition to the benefits of higher efficiencies and energy yields associated with such products. IHS Markit expects that demand for bifacial modules in the United States will be primarily served by manufacturing lines across Southeast Asia, as products shipped from China will still face antidumping and Section 301 tariffs that will make them less competitive.Subscribers Only

Nevada accelerates utility-scale solar plus storage in the United StatesJune 11, 2018On 31st May 2018, electric utility Nevada Energy announced plans to offer six contracts for solar PV projects for a total 1 GWac. Half of the solar projects are to be paired with battery energy storage representing 100 MW / 400 MWh of energy capacity. The announcement signifies Nevada Energy’s next wave of renewable energy deployments that will help the state of Nevada achieve a 25% renewable portfolio standard (RPS) by 2025. Across the United States, the rise of solar plus storage projects illustrates their pivotal role in driving both solar and storage deployment as renewable penetration increases.Subscribers Only

China PV installations to boom in fourth quarter after grace period removalJanuary 31, 2018On 22 December 2017, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) in China confirmed the 2018 FiT rate and the anticipated grace period until June 2018 to obtain the 2017 FiT rate (for projects approved in 2017). The FiT tariff valid from 1 January 2018 is 0.55 yuan/kWh, 0.65 yuan/kWh, and 0.75 yuan/kWh for resource areas I, II and III, respectively. Distributed PV systems that sell surplus power to the grid will obtain 0.37 yuan/kWh for the excess power. The updated policy has removed the grace period in 2019, meaning that the 2019 FiT rate will apply for all projects as of 1 January 2019. The FiT deadlines for different policy segments, in parallel with events in PV markets outside China, will determine the quarterly module pricing and installation patterns. IHS Markit maintains its current annual 50 GW PV installation projection for China in 2018, but we are reviewing the quarterly distribution.Subscribers Only

Declining PPA prices under the shadow of the Section 201 Trade Case in the United StatesJanuary 22, 2018In the second half of 2017, a number of utility-scale PV solar projects were awarded contracts with record low PPA prices for the US market. The decline of PPA prices has been primarily driven by continued technology and manufacturing innovation across the value chain. What is striking about the announced prices for these utility-scale plants is the timeline in which these deals have been made. Despite the strategies developers may have for their projects, success may ultimately depend on how stringent the remedies for the trade case will be.Subscribers Only
