Solar energy as a future energy source of various countries are closely engaged in the manufacture of solar panels in the global solar panel manufacturing countries are mainly China and the United States of America’s competition, this article to a detailed comparison of China and the United States of America’s solar energy manufacturing strengths and weaknesses for the purchase of solar panels to provide a reference for people.
For China as a manufacturing country, China has a complete manufacturing industry chain manufacturing efficiency at the same time the price is also cheaper, for the global solar panel manufacturing statistics for 2022 China’s solar panels accounted for 78% of the world, the United States only accounted for the global manufacturing of 1.9%, China’s solar panel manufacturing continues to grow, for the solar panels manufactured in China in 2024 accounted for 80% of the world’s 90% of the silicon processing are from China, that is to say, the Chinese and American solar panels are cheaper than American solar panels, for the purchase of solar panels. More than 90% of the world’s silicon processing from China, that is to say, every 10 solar panels in 8 is made in China, the United States solar panels are also sold at a price 45% higher than in China, the United States of America’s low productivity of light industry, most of the implementation of outsourcing programs, the import of raw materials for the production of solar panels, so the price is higher, but the price is higher at the same time, the quality is not necessarily in line with the cost-effective.
Many famous brands belong to China such as JinkoSolar, Trina, JAsolar, Longi, the world’s top ten solar panels on the list of brands are almost all dominated by China, compared to the U.S. brands, in addition to Convalt, such as most of the old brands have disappeared in China’s solar brand competition, China’s dominance of solar energy simply because of strength of the strength.
How would you feel if an American product you believe in told you it wasn’t made in the U.S.? In fact this is very common for the U.S., due to low productivity the U.S. often outsourcing industries, such as Solaria as a U.S. brand most of his production is carried out in South Korea only a small part of the United States. For example, Solaria as an American brand has most of its production in Korea with only a small portion in the US. Canadiansolar, although it sounds like an American brand, has all of its manufacturing in China and is a Chinese company.
China has absolute dominance in solar panels, it is true that Chinese brands of solar panels have high efficiency, the quality of Chinese solar panels is better than the United States, specifically in terms of better warranty period and lifespan, efficiency, etc., for the normal use of the solar panels can easily reach the use of 10 to 20 years, in the silicon solar panels did not break through the 30% before the quality of the world’s top brands of solar will not be the same. The quality of the world’s top brands of solar energy will not be a big difference, but China in addition to the price is not as good as the United States are more than the United States.
China occupies the absolute leadership of the solar panel market, in which there will be many brands of solar panels type, the price is cheaper at the same time the quality will be reduced, not only China, the United States solar panels also exist in this case, the price is higher in the name of Made in the United States of America quality is also worse, this is just a case, for the big brands do not have this type of problem.
China’s solar panel production now there is a surplus of phenomena, China’s domestic market can only consume 1/3, most of the solar panels are sold in overseas markets, in order to curb China’s solar energy industry affects the U.S. tax on solar panels provided by the U.S. leading to the rise in prices of China’s solar panels in the overseas market, in fact, the price of China’s solar panels in the gradual reduction of the price of solar panels, even if so, the U.S. solar panels are still much higher than the price of solar panels. China is much higher.
Technologically possible but difficult to manufacture, as we all know China with excellent complete productivity and good solar technology so in the solar industry to take the initiative, but most of the U.S. solar panels are not manufactured in their own country, the U.S. industrial development is poor, so the U.S. solar almost can not catch up with China in the development of solar panels.
China is in the forefront of the world’s solar panel development and manufacturing level, 80% of the annual solar panels are produced in China, China with excellent manufacturing capacity to continue to make the price of solar panels so that the solar panels can be used by more people, at the same time, China is also trying to break through the new technology on the investment of a lot of money in the China and the United States of America solar panels in the competition China is in a leading position.
