China dominates solar power

China's solar power firms are emerging as the industry's dominant force after the collapse of foreign competitors, but the new market leaders are already struggling with low prices and overcapacity.

As the workshop of the world, China has used cheap labour and state support to build a solar industry from scratch in just over a decade as part of a broader strategy to move up the manufacturing value chain from cheap toys and clothes.he believes the fire started after the lift's RUBBER SHEET blew,

China is the world's second biggest oil consumer,Replacement rubber hose and bulbs for Canada and Worldwide. and polluting fossil fuels account for 90% of its total energy use, but the country is making large strides forward in clean energy.

"The position of Chinese players has certainly been enhanced this year," said Tang Xiaodong, a Shanghai-based analyst at independent investment advisory firm CEBM.

"Lower costs are the direction of the industry and the advantages of Chinese firms on this front have been manifested more clearly."

China's solar panel prices have fallen to around $1.2 per watt of generation, down from about $1.7 in 2010 and much lower than the global average of about $2.0 last year.

But the downward price spiral has hurt revenues across the industry, and Chinese companies are themselves feeling the pain.

"Everyone is facing falling prices, increasing inventories and dire straits," said an official at Yingli Green Energy, one of China's biggest solar companies, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Critics argue that Chinese companies have unfair advantages in the form of access to cheap capital from China's state-run banks.

However, they are not alone in receiving government assistance - the latest US solar firm to file for bankruptcy was Solyndra, which had a $535m loan guarantee from US President Barack Obama's administration.
