Solar companies cut costs and prices sharply to maintain market share. That led to a few low-cost survivors while many other competitors were driven out of business in China and around the world.

REUTERS/Stringer/File Photo Purchase Licensing Rights SHANGHAI, June 12 (Reuters) - Chinese solar panel manufacturers said they are seeking immediate government intervention to curb investment and industry collaboration to arrest a plunge in prices of solar cells and modules, as the industry faces overcapacity.
In addition, China is responsible for the processing of rare earth elements that are mined abroad. China worked hard to maintain its position as a leader in the production of assembled PVs and their parts. The country has also majorly invested in installed capacities. In the span of 25 years, China was able to install 393 GW of solar PV alone.
China produces most of the materials and components for the world’s solar panels, in addition to the panels themselves. Chinatopix, via Associated Press Something similar is happening in the automotive sector. Annual car sales in China are around 25 million, more than any other country but barely half the country’s ability to make vehicles.
As discussed in the previous sections, China was able to dominate the solar industry market. Incentives and government subsidies dating from 2009 onwards helped secure the lead in the world for solar power production since 2017 (Liu et al., 2022; Chowdhury et al., 2020).

When considering solar panel manufacturing, China accounted for nearly 78% of all panels. In the first half of 2023, Chinese exports increased by 34%, with 114 GW shipped worldwide, compared to 85 GW in 2022. With nearly 8 out of every 10 solar panels made in China, most nations rely heavily on Chinese solar cells to power the future.
The US imported a record 54GW of solar panels in 2023, an "unprecedented wave" from mostly China-based suppliers operating in Southeast Asia, raising concerns over the negative impact on the country''s efforts to build a domestic supply chain, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence.
