First, China itself has huge domestic demand for solar panels. In addition, China has a complete industrial chain in solar panels, and China's huge production scale and complete automated production lines have greatly reduced costs. The main thing is that China is not only a producer of cheap solar panels, but also a technology leader. leader. Don't complain about Chinese subsidies for solar panels. All countries are subsidizing them. Don’t Germany, Japan, and the United States have subsidies? Just like today's electric cars. When Japan and Germany controlled solar panel production and technology, how many countries could afford solar power? China cannot afford solar panels made in Germany and Japan, so it has had to develop the industry on its own.

The biggest obstacle facing the domestic solar industry is due to the American own oil industry. US oil industry is so successful globally that it become it's own weakness. On the other hand, China lacks reliable global oil network. It's forced to invest in alternatives in case of oil embargo by the West. That's where China megaboom in solar energy happened. US businesses, meanwhile, would rather invest hundreds of billions into more oil rigs than renewable energy. It's not the lack of investment. Its the success of traditional oil industries.

It would be hard. Most the raw silica is coming from China, and that's what's used to make the silicon wafers. Also, saying it comes from sand is misleading. You get areas of larger deposits of it, and it's those deposits that help keep costs down. They said about 90% of the world's silicon is coming from China, that happened around 2006 - 2009 where different mines were opened in China (shallow mines). And this is why a lot of people think you shouldn't waste money trying to compete, or throw large tariffs on panels coming from China. This isn't a drop dead technology. Chinese companies AND the govt. WANT to export these products. There's competition already in the Chinese companies. It doesn't benefit them to cut supplies. On the other hand IF they were to use that position and then jack up prices so the CCP can make a lot of tax revenue from this market which they aren't right now then I could see pushing for rapid development of solar panels outside of China. But you STILL need large deposits of silica. If there weren't tariffs on Chinese panels, right now the US would have a HUGE boom in installing capacity. Companies WANT to do this.

Today, China's solar industry has produced almost all the solar panels that can be used around the world. It is almost impossible for U.S. solar companies to compete because of cost and technology mass production supply chain issues. If the United States adopts trade protection and sets high tariffs to block Chinese photovoltaic products, the United States will ultimately suffer high costs and reduce carbon emissions far behind the world's progress. It can be said that China’s photovoltaic industry has no real competitors. Because no other followers can be seen behind the leader. . . . .

Tony Seba predicted the current cost and scale of solar in his 2009 book "Solar Trillions", for which he was roundly rubbished at the time. He has been yelling from the rooftops for 14 years that the dramatic solar learning curves means it would be outcompeting fossil energy by about now, but the Chinese were the only ones who took serious notice.

Boosting demand is a critical element. US is a big energy consumption market. Instead of nuclear energy, boost solar energy in US market is completely within US own decision. In this regard, it is not all a bad thing that China has taken a lead. China domestic market is making this shift to solar instead of nuclear or fossil, which leads to much smaller CO2 footprint. That is a benefit for the world ecosystem.

One of the other major reasons why the US is lagging behind in sustainable energy advancements is the significant influence of the fossil fuel lobbyists in Washington DC. Historically, these lobbyists have channeled vast sums of money into political campaigns, ensuring their interests are protected. There have been numerous documented instances where these financial contributions coincided with policy decisions favouring the fossil fuel industry over cleaner alternatives. Comparatively, countries leading in sustainable energy innovations, like Denmark and Germany, have more robust policies that limit corporate influence in political decisions. Thankfully, there seems to be a shift in the tide. The recent passage of the Build Back Better Act through Congress under the Biden administration is a hopeful sign that the US is starting to prioritise sustainable energy solutions over entrenched fossil fuel interests

The US was subsidizing the market too but oil companies were big players in the US. What Chinese companies have access to is low cost silica. The US through decades of making ICs have exhaust their bigger deposits of silica. This gives Chinese companies a bigger advantage. Chinese silica is sold on the global market, but just a wild guess the Chinese companies pay less for it. It would be a rare company where that isn't true. Chinese companies improved the manufacturing of solar panels over many years, so this isn't ALL about an unfair advantage because of subsidies. Part of this is called persistence and a SHARED goal between the govt., companies and people.
