Study On China, Europe And The US PV Industry Trade Frictions

Solar photovoltaic (pv) as a new kind of energy, like hydropower and windpower has the advantages of low environment pollution and recycled. When thehydropower and wind power has become the world’s an integral part of the energystructure, Any countries to speed up the pace of the development of solar photovoltaicindustry, and strive to dominate in the field of photovoltaic applications in the world.Chinese photovoltaic industry started in the1950s, late in Germany, the United Statesand other western countries.So, China’s pv industry in the world’s chain plays on theworld’s factory,and in middle reaches of the industry chain, the profit distribution is atthe bottom part of the smile curve. In the current economic development situation,trade division of labor theory of comparative advantage is difficult to achieve.The export of Chinese photovoltaic products successively countervailinginvestigation by the United States, the European Union. On the one hand, influencedby the economic crisis, slow development of world economy, countries for their owndevelopment, to take a new round of trade protection policy. Under the condition ofwithout violating WTO’s agreement,anti-dumping, countervailing and safeguardmeasures limiting imports. on the other hand, in recent years, with the continuousimprovement of China’s economic strength, China’s foreign trade development israpid, to become the world’s largest trading nation,hower western countries to spread"the China threat theory", step up the trade restrictions in China, the European andAmerican countries is no longer limited to the anti-dumping measures, to strengthenthe use of countervailing measures.This is a big loss of the results of two surveys for China. In exports Europe andthe United States market, the proportion of photovoltaic products quickly drop, costexport, weakening products export competitiveness and deteriorating businessenvironment, the unemployment problem is obvious and easy to trigger a trade war.Of course this also prompted photovoltaic industry structure optimization andimprovement of industrial policy. But the adverse effects of countervailinginvestigation is better than a boost. Although the current trade friction has brought serious adverse effects,analysizing the causes of dispute, base on the legislation, government, enterprise andcountermeasures. First, strengthen the countervailing learning, improve and adjust thedomestic support policy and strengthening the protection of patent research and;Second to reduce China’s photovoltaic industry external dependence, increase theconstruction of talent introduction system, promote pv export market diversification,strengthens the international thinking of the photovoltaic enterprises; In addition, topromote the work ability, and promote the photovoltaic industry market structureadjustment, promote the optimal allocation of resources, promote shake-out amongenterprises, optimizing the structure of the industrial chain and a feed-in tariffreduction, improve the government service consciousness to reduce administrativeplanning control, strengthening the government information sharing and to localgovernment policy adjustments; Moreover, enhance the capacity of government,business suit, perfect the industry standards, to improve and strengthen thesupervision mechanism.
