Blossoming China CSP desire experienced overseas partners

 

Earlier this month, Price Department of China National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) held a comment symposium about making FiT for China future CSP pilot projects, which is the sign that CSP FiT is finally taken into consideration officially and news say the result will surely come out no later than this June.

 

Over half year has passed after the breaking news of China around 1GW pilot CSP projects to be developed, however, it seems to take too long for confirming the project finalists and FiT. One of the reasons is said that Price Dept. is quite cautious referring to the experience of PV, and another is the conflict of suggested price by industry players and official expected one. RMB1.18-1.25/kwh is widely recognized as the bottom by the players while Price Dept. seems to expect lower price considering problems of Wind and PV curtailment and insufficient subsidy budget for renewables.

 

News say Price Dept. showed positive attitude for finalizing the FiT expected by the industry. Too low price will cause the exit of potential investors and developers because of hopeless profit. The idea shared both the industry and government is that the whole industry should spare no efforts in improving efficiency, lowering LCOE and realizing big-scale commercialization on the base of big support from government.

 

Industry voices say China is indeed quite lack of experience in CSP project development, and the developers are eager for the help and cooperation from experienced overseas partners from Europe, USA etc. In view of the demand of Sino-western communication, CSP Focus will organize Chinese delegation to Madrid, Spain during June.29-30 to join CSP Focus Innovation conference, creating the platform for China-Spain deep conversation. Moreover, the conference will focus on CSP technology innovation and project development experience sharing. Besides Chinese delegates, overseas companies like Abengoa, ACS Cobra, ARIES, Protermosolar, Empresarios Agrupados, SolarReserve, BrightSource, World Bank, IK-4 Tekniker, CENER etc.
