This research was funded by the National Social Science Foundation of China (20BGL046). Government subsidies (GSs) have triggered a remarkable increase in the production capacity of photovoltaic (PV) electricity in China. However, the lack of core technologies has limited PV enterpris...
The current state of the solar panel industry offers a good illustration of how subsidies can contribute to fuelling continued investment in production capacity irrespective of market conditions.
The reduction in subsidies could place additional strain on China's solar industry, which is already grappling with overcapacity and plummeting panel prices that threaten the viability of smaller manufacturers.
Government subsidies and innovation performance in photovoltaic firms. Government subsidies have a promoting effect on innovation performance. This promoting effect is more pronounced in carbon trading pilot zones. R&D input plays a mediating role in this relationship. Carbon trading prices have a moderating effect on this relationship.
