Jiangxi Province has just concluded an agreement the government procurement of solar photovoltaic products supplier project was favorably received. Manufacturers have commented: "The first five categories in Jiangxi Solar PV supply the final product list Government Procurement Agreement and supporting the implementation of the administrative rules to support the PV industry in Jiangxi Province lit up the front walk on the road."
This innovative approach to government procurement to support the PV industry to a new height, but also achieved its way in the government adopted a "triple jump."
Rapid Development
Speaking of "triple jump", then have to talk about from 2007. This year, the old industrial cities from the city to the green industry evolution process, the government spared no effort in Baoding, Hebei Province to the development of renewable energy industry breakthrough on solar photovoltaic industries, notably in the "" solar energy City "Interim Measures on Management of special funds construction," stipulated that the traffic signaling system in the city, city road lighting, tourist attractions lighting, newsstand, where neon lights and advertising to promote solar lighting products a comprehensive, use of financial institutions in the administrative the implementation of government procurement of funds, the guide and support the use of solar photovoltaic products, in the tender evaluation, the appropriate policies and regulations according to the bonus offer.
The first jump to the government procurement to support solar photovoltaic products from scratch. Chopper test results were significantly smaller, solar photovoltaic products gradually be applied to the municipal building and livelihood projects, but also opened up government procurement of solar photovoltaic products prelude. Then, government procurement support solar photovoltaic industry are springing into being, especially the local companies have jointly boost the development of the industry. September 2008, Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province to develop a "Yangzhou LED and solar photovoltaic products to implement the government procurement approach", further defined the city authorities at all levels, institutions and groups in organizational financial capital procurement LED and solar photovoltaic products When recognized by experts in the comprehensive cost-effective and reasonable, to meet user requirements under the premise of preferred LED and solar photovoltaic products. Shunde City, Guangdong Province followed by the preparation of photovoltaic products also government procurement practices, to encourage procurement of solar photovoltaic products units, and assist enterprises to develop industry, product standards and specifications.
The second jump shows the determination of government procurement, this time to support solar photovoltaic industry has risen to the institutional level. When people are still bullish on the system as he kept praise, In less than 1 year, the third jump after another. In the Ministry of Finance, Science and Technology and National Energy Board and jointly promote the "Golden Sun" technology demonstration project, led by local governments in 2009, the PV industry will be developed as a local "at work." According to incomplete statistics, China has 14 provinces and cities made of photovoltaic industry into a new pillar industries.
This is one out of two dark horses: One is the first time in Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province solar products into the government in 2010 centralized procurement catalog; second levels in the province of Jiangxi Provincial Finance Department released Landy administrative institutions and public organizations to implement the first production of solar photovoltaic Province Government Procurement Agreement, the final product delivery purchase notice the matter and announce the list of successful suppliers.
In addition, Yunnan, Hunan, Qinghai and Beijing, Shanghai, Hefei, Shenzhen and other cities also went through the government procurement pay for the solar photovoltaic products. Many excellent solar photovoltaic companies formed with the government "allies", with government procurement so that their products deep into the market, and won a good reputation.
Does not take unusual way
In 2009, the government procurement to support solar photovoltaic industry popped the two dark horse on the road especially in Jiangxi Province, represented, but the innovations made by the provincial government procurement is not readily available.
According to insiders, solar photovoltaic technology is the use of semiconductor materials (mainly silicon) in the sun light shines on the photoelectric effect to produce silicon material on a direct current power generation technologies form of silicon materials application development is the formation of the industrial chain known as the photovoltaic industry. At present, the PV industry mainly refers to the crystalline silicon solar cell industry. Solar photovoltaic power generation and application of the entire production chain is divided into five levels, from silicon to silicon, to film solar cells, and then to the solar cell component, and finally to the photovoltaic power generation systems.
Faced with such a complex solar photovoltaic industry, government procurement, how to support its development has become a thorny problem. Seeking entry point, the Jiangxi Provincial Government to support the procurement target for the first look for the final PV products, which do not re-assembled after purchase, assembly, installation of the product directly; followed by the extension of the provincial agreement with the supplier years of practice, that will brand, sub-paragraph set the price discount rate, but variable models; then followed by the use of the Government Procurement Agreement price = market price by the evidence, both sides share equal consultations (1 - successful discount rate) of the universal formula, the final various administrative units to the province to purchase solar photovoltaic final product on schedule.
It is understood that the tender of the applicable government agencies to use solar photovoltaic product, that is, with all kinds of colored lighting, insecticidal lamps and signal lamps and other kinds of applications, various power systems, various chargers, pumps, etc. Class of pumping system, the maximum margin of preference for each category are basically more than 10%, the minimum discount rate also have about 5%.
"Although government procurement has discount rate, but compared with the general lighting products, the one-time investment costs are still several times higher." The industry believes that the higher cost through the use of a bonus. He let a correspondent account energy conservation, solar lights from space constraints and the technology is mature, can be use in the engineering and cost savings. Solar street light pole just spent a while with the ordinary thermal power lighting lamps in the open trenching, laying of cables, equipment transformers, electrical control in mind the construction of infrastructure such as the relative higher cost; in accordance with the ordinary 100-watt lamps 10 hours of illumination time, the average electricity cost of 0.7 yuan once a day, although the operating costs of solar lights, solar panels but the ordinary life of 15 years, LED lighting lamp life is 100,000 hours, compared to savings Nearly 40% of the cost.
"Moreover, solar street light is absorbed by solar panels solar thermal energy to the battery in use after the store, even a week can be normal light rain, with safe and reliable, no noise, no pollution, consumes no fuel, no need to set up transmission lines, etc. characteristics, these advantages are the conventional power generation and other power generation methods that fall.
