15:20-16:10

1. How can we avoid the mismatch of upstream and downstream production capacity caused by technological iteration from the manufacturing end to the application end? How can testing and certification institutions establish a standardized system to reduce collaborative costs?

2. The "manufacturing localization " policies in Europe and the United States pose challenges to Chinese new energy enterprises. How can enterprises balance the expansion of overseas markets and technological autonomy and controllability? In the process of international layout, how to deal with geopolitical risks and the demand for supply chain resilience?

3. Currently, the profitability of energy storage relies on subsidies and the price difference between peak and off-peak hours, but the imperfect trading mechanism in the power market restricts its large-scale application. How can the power grid side, power generation side and user side work together to promote business model innovation? What supporting tools do policymakers need to accelerate the release of energy storage value?

16:50-17:30

The Chinese solar PV industry has invested in economies of scale in production which has brought down the cost per Watt of modules by over 90%. This has allowed the global energy transition to proceed at the speed and scale required to meet the global climate challenge of 1.5C, and has saved 50 million tonnes of carbon dioxide since the beginnings of the solar industry. There are now 5million people employed in solar around the world - most of them in the installation of solar, downstream in the value chain. And yet, solar is a deeply political and strategic technology, with many challenges facing us. This dialogue seeks to identify the challenges in different markets around the world and discuss the future scenarios for the whole industry.
