Leaders Summit on Developing China CSP Demonstration Projects & CSPPLAZA 2017 New Year Gathering will be grandly held in Dunhuang on December 28th ~ 29th. This Leaders Summit will be organized by CSPPLAZA and co-organized by Shouhang IHW Resources Saving Technology Co., Ltd., as well as getting great support from Energy Bureau of Dunhuang Gansu.

Feed-in-Tariff policy of China CSP demonstration projects has been officially released. However, under the electricity price of RMB1.15/kWh, it must be very tight for these project owners to complete construction and put them into operation by the end of 2018. While the success or failure of the first batch demonstration projects will have a direct and profound influence on the future of China CSP industry and even the development prospects of every enterprise, so we have no choice but to succeed.

With the desire to earn victory, first, we must be clear about the challenges we are facing. At policy level, we can’t ignore the investment risks under the price of ¥1.15/KWh. We must strive for the strong support of local governments for reduction or exemption of tax, financial subsidies, green credit and land preferential. At financing level, because the amount of investment in CSP plants enormous, we must get through financing channels as soon as possible and try to gain the financing support at a low cost. At technique level, for most of demonstration projects, there exists demand for a technical cooperation in order to clear off the technical risks of the projects. As to the supply side, the enormous marketing purchase demand released from the constructions of all China demonstration projects will be a big final exam for Chinese suppliers as well as a significant opportunity to forge a truly mature manufacturing capacity of localized equipment.
