China and the United States dominate the development of the field of solar energy, according to the European solar trading company data, China and the United States 2016 new installed capacity than in 2015 increased by nearly 1 times. By the end of 2016, the global installed capacity of solar photovoltaic power generation has reached 305GW, of which China 34.5GW, the United States 14.7GW. This article from the installed capacity and parity online two aspects of the development of photovoltaic development in China and the United States.
On the home distribution of the US PV industry has a variety of business model innovation, for the distributed system of home customers to obtain, the current US business model has been fully intelligent, such as remote design technology, the use of satellite maps to obtain real-time information on the roof, To go, you can on the computer program technology and customer communication, greatly reducing the labor and time costs. For 2009, 2015, the lease and PPA model is the primary means of investing in construction. The advantages of this model include customers who do not have to invest, have no risk, and third-party settlement of subsidies and tax credits. In addition, Tesla pushed SolarRoof to promote home distribution. Tiles are made of tempered glass, which is more than three times the standard tiles. They also have the best hail resistance, wind and fire rating (4 FM4473 / F grade ASTMD3161 / A grade UL790). In appearance, SolarRoof uses the industry's higher standards: tile glass coating standards meet ASTM1376 (aesthetic best grade), EN1096 (reliability best grade).
