Backed up by the world’s most rapid and dynamic growth, and possessing an enormous market, the growth of China’s solar PV industry has in recent years far exceeded the global average. The state government is also encouraging development. On March 26, the Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Housing & Urban-Rural Development jointly issued the “Solar Roofs Program”, aimed at giving financial subsidies to Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) application projects.

China New Energy Chamber of Commerce is working together with the Ministry of Construction to establish a solar PV industry alliance to resolve matters like subsidy standards, the subsidy application process, etc. The "Solar Roofs Program" is a "Golden Sun" project jointly promoted by the Department of Science & Technology and Ministry of Finance. The concrete measures for implementation are currently being formulated, and will
hopefully appear soon.

The project will undertake subsidies for the promotion of domestic solar PV electricity generation, with particular emphasis on solar PV generating plants and grid-connected power technology. The National Energy Administration has reported to the Department of State in its "Plan on the Development of New Energy" that solar energy power generating capacity
scale will increase from 1.8 million kW to 10 million kW.
