    2015, China's total import and export of solar photovoltaic cells totaled US$17.87 billion, a slight decrease of 2.3% YoY. Among them, exports amounted to US$14.68 billion, up 1.9% YoY, export volume increased by 5.3% YoY, export prices decreased by 3.2% YoY, imports amounted to US$3.18 billion, down 17.7% YoY, imports decreased by 8.1% YoY, and import prices decreased by 10.5% YoY.
    72i .In the past 3 years, China's photovoltaic battery industry experienced the 2012 major international market "double anti" trade restrictions, the development into a severe winter, from 2014 began the industry development warm, domestic production technology level, industrial scale gradually expanded, raw materials supply is sufficient, enterprise strength significantly enhanced, get rid of raw materials and the market "two sides outside" embarrassing situation.
    72i .In 2015, the export of photovoltaic cell products is now
    72ifrom the international market structure, China's traditional photovoltaic market European export share decline is still large, to Asia, Latin America and other emerging markets significant growth;
    72i .In 2015, the installed capacity in Europe was 8.5GW, and China's solar photovoltaic cells exported to Europe us$2.24 billion, down 20.4% YoY, accounting for only 15.3% of exports, mainly due to the impact of trade restrictions adopted by the EU after the implementation of the "double anti" to China; Exports to Asia accounted for the largest share, reaching US$8.86 billion, accounting for more than 60% year-on-year growth of 12.8%, while China's exports to emerging markets in Latin America amounted to US$90 million, up 84.2% YoY, with the largest increase in China's major export markets, with market demand of about 2.2GW. Due to the impact of the second "double anti" and Canadian PV "double anti" early warning cases in China, the high margin paid in accordance with the penalty tariff caused the North American market of China's photovoltaic cell products to export a significant 21.8%, accounting for only 12.6% of China's export share. Among them, China's exports of photovoltaic cells to Japan led by US$3.86 billion, accounting for 26.3%, due to the decline in subsidies and market saturation, a sharp decrease of 20.8% YoY; China's exports to the Uka by 36.4% YoY, the export amount amounted to 570 million U.S. dollars, ranking sixth in China's export market, but from March 30, 2016, the market will further reduce subsidies policy triggered the end of 2015 to the beginning of 2016 in the British market photovoltaic rush, which will stimulate China's photovoltaic products to the UK's surge in exports.
    72i .From the analysis of the structure of export trade mode, general trade exceeds processing trade, dominates, and continues to grow steadily. In 2015, China's general trade and export volume of solar photovoltaic cells was US$8.18 billion, accounting for 55.7% yoY, while exports of processing trade amounted to US$5.92 billion, accounting for 40.4%, a sharp decrease of 21.9% YoY. The remarkable growth of general trade exports indicates that the level of photovoltaic cell manufacturing in China has been continuously improving, get rid of the dilemma of dual foreign dependence on raw materials and the market, and realize the localization of production and supply of the whole industrial chain.
    72i .In 2016, PV industry exports are expected to continue to increase
    72i2015 global PV module production reached 60GW, China's photovoltaic module production of about 43GW, accounting for 71.7% of global production, ranking first in the world for 7 consecutive years. Due to the improvement of the development environment of the industry, China's major battery components enterprises have turned a profit, the top 10 enterprises profit level of more than 15%. In 2015, the decline in the price of components makes the cost of photovoltaic power generation approaching or even reaching parity, as well as the major economies of the new energy industry increasing attention, is expected to continue to grow in 2016 global PV installed capacity, the domestic is expected to achieve new installed capacity of more than 19GW, cumulative installed capacity of more than 60GW, surpassing Germany to become the world's largest cumulative installed power. China's photovoltaic modules will continue to be the world's largest producer of photovoltaic cell products, the annual export of photovoltaic cells and components is expected to exceed 15 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of about 5%.
    72i .Export dependence is high, the development of the domestic market is still obstacles
    72icurrently more than 60% of China's photovoltaic battery products for export, external dependence is still relatively high. On the current development of the domestic photovoltaic market, although a series of policies and measures have been introduced to boost the photovoltaic industry, but the reality of difficulties still exist, financing difficulties, high construction costs, property rights disputes, long investment recovery period, grid difficulties, subsidies arrears, power restrictions, land nature and taxes and other issues still need to be resolved, the actual installation of domestic distributed power generation is also seriously lower than expected.
    72i .  Export market structure is not stable, emerging markets risk of friction. In recent years, China's photovoltaic exports are frequently subject to trade friction, exports to traditional markets in Europe and the United States are blocked. In 2013, India and Australia also launched trade relief cases. In early 2014, the United States launched a second anti-dumping anti-subsidy investigation into China's solar cell products. Photovoltaic products exported to Canada are also affected by the "double-reverse" case. The current overall export market structure is still unstable. Since 2013, the rise of emerging markets such as Japan and India, domestic re-exports to Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines and other Southeast Asian markets to circumvent trade restrictions, as well as Turkey and other markets to introduce new trade protection policies, will continue to be the international market instability factors. Some of China's photovoltaic enterprises in the emerging market auction sales of the seed has appeared, should beware of such market protectionism.
    72i .  The industry blindly expand production is obvious, overcapacity appears
    72i China's photovoltaic battery products export enterprises mainly concentrated in Jiangsu, Shandong, Hebei, Shanghai, Zhejiang and other coastal areas. According to customs statistics, in 2015 the export of solar cell products more than 1 million U.S. dollars more than 400 enterprises, some of the small photovoltaic enterprises that were on the verge of closure last year due to lack of funds in the domestic situation is a good, over-ordered stimulus, through contract work and other ways to turn a profit, one after another to re-occupy the domestic and foreign markets. Domestic leading photovoltaic manufacturers have been expanding production, only the top 10 enterprises added capacity of more than 10GW, capacity tends to overcapacity. Under this background, the industry enters the adjustment period and the integration period formed by the market-led, and the export order and related standards and industry self-discipline code need to be set up urgently.
    72i .  Comprehensive strategy to accelerate industry integration
    72i the future, the sustainable development of the industry still needs to take into account domestic and foreign market demand, industrial supply and demand balance, upstream and downstream coordination and other factors, take comprehensive measures to solve the outstanding problems facing industrial development. To give full play to the basic role of market mechanism in promoting the adjustment of pv industrial structure, the survival of the fittest, optimizing the layout and development and utilization, to create a brand-heavy, heavy product quality enterprises can develop a reasonable policy environment for rapid development. To achieve the domestic market and overseas plant two-track development.
    72i .  By stepping up efforts to launch the domestic market, to make up for the possible decline in overseas market demand caused by the overall lack of demand. It is suggested that relevant government departments should improve the implementation rules to boost domestic demand in the photovoltaic industry and ensure the rational and orderly development of the domestic market. In addition, for photovoltaic enterprises to participate in domestic projects to establish exchanges, cooperation mechanisms, such as the establishment of distributed photovoltaic power generation projects in the field of circulation, to help enterprises to open up the domestic market. While accelerating the expansion of emerging markets, photovoltaic enterprises are actively implementing the global distribution plan of the industry, adopting the local production strategy through overseas investment in factories, overseas mergers and acquisitions, etc., and promoting the accelerated evolution of the international PV trade pattern.
    72i .  A number of initiatives help expand emerging markets. At present, the global attention to the new energy industry is increasing, by policy support "new" market increase, it is recommended that China's embassies and consulates abroad, business associations and other foreign countries pay close attention to foreign policies and market competition environment trends, to provide enterprises with the latest emerging market news;
    72i .  Promote the early warning mechanism of trade friction in export markets. The "four-body linkage" mechanism of the Ministry of Commerce, local commerce departments, business associations and responding enterprises has achieved good results in actively responding to foreign trade relief investigations through legal defenses, government representations and industry cooperation. It is suggested that this mechanism should be based on, drawing on past case experience, and designing and establishing a global early warning mechanism for trade friction in emerging markets of photovoltaic su-weinles.
    72i .  Establishment of the Pv Trade Promotion Center. It is proposed to set up a photovoltaic industry trade promotion center, commission editing a state-level photovoltaic testing laboratory and relevant authoritative photovoltaic certification bodies, and set up a standard guidance for the export of photovoltaic cell products. Pay attention to the analysis and research and development of key equipment and special materials in the photovoltaic industry, promote industrial restructuring and technological innovation, establish a photovoltaic certification center to promote compulsory certification of export products and international mutual recognition, provide world-class testing level and related green certification, and promote the internationalization of China's photovoltaic green certification.
    72i .  Through the combination of export qualification, guidance certification and industry self-discipline, promote the survival of the fittest, purify the market environment, standardize the export order, through the market mechanism to form a reasonable number of export enterprises.
