On December 15th last year, China National Energy Administration issued “Suggestions Draft of Solar energy” in the 13th Plan of Five-year, this draft covers three industries in the 13th Plan of Five-year National Development suggestions including PV, CSP and solar heat industry. The draft has formally put forward the target of CSP Capacity of 10GW by the end of 2020 and raised the target of 800 million square meters in solar heat collector area installation.
Due to Chinese companies don’t have more practical experience, foreign firms enter the China market is relatively easy. In addition, China CSP projects require foreign companies’ cooperation. Overseas players can hold the latest CSP technology in China (China CSP market is a big fresh cake waiting for the right companies arrival), and find their right partners.
The demand of overseas CSP players seeking cooperation with pertinent China enterprises is significantly rising. It is expected that a large number of overseas manufacturers, project developers, EPC, etc. will enter Chinese market in the near future. As a technology-intensive industry, CSP development will be quickly and effectively boosted with overseas players’ involvement.
