Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The US market may be closed to it but China can shape development in Africa \u2013 as a developer and operator of solar energy projects<\/p>\n

Compared to electric vehicles (EVs), China\u2019s production overcapacity in solar panels may be more glaring. The country commands 80 per cent of the solar photovoltaic (PV) value chain and its five-fold expansion in module manufacturing capacity during 2022 and 2023 precipitated a 40 per cent price decline last year. Long before the US moved to lock out Chinese EVs, it had imposed heavy tariffs on Chinese solar panels \u2013 in 2012.<\/p>\n

But the industry\u2019s supply-demand balance must be understood in the context of its sustained high growth.<\/p>\n

The last shakeout in China\u2019s industry kicked off in 2013 when Suntech Power Holdings defaulted on its bond payments, later becoming bankrupt. Since then, demand has exploded. The global installed capacity for solar power has expanded about tenfold and is expected to double in the next three years. Now, any excess production capacity can reasonably expect to be digested. In a reverse of market dynamics, demand will expand to meet ever cheaper supply.<\/p>\n

This is because solar power benefits from a powerful positive feedback loop. As solar panel deployment increases, economies of scale kick in, driving down manufacturing costs. These lower prices make solar energy more accessible and attractive, boosting demand. Increased demand fuels more investment and innovation, making solar technology even more efficient and affordable. This self-reinforcing cycle propels the exponential growth of solar power.<\/p>\n

Given solar power made up less than 6 per cent of global electricity generated last year, the greatest growth is still to come. Solar power is expected to generate more electricity than gas-fired power plants in 2030 and coal-fired ones by 2032 \u2013 and could become our biggest electricity source in a decade.<\/p>\n

But two key obstacles stand in the way of even faster adoption of solar power: storage and long-distance transmission.<\/p>\n

In China, the growth of energy storage systems \u2013 from power generators to industrial users \u2013 has been accelerating. Globally, battery storage costs have fallen by 99 per cent in the last three decades; battery technologies are set to evolve alongside solar power in a reinforcing ecosystem. There are grandiose plans to send solar and other forms of renewable energy between countries, such as to Britain from Morocco, and to Singapore from its Southeast Asian neighbours. China, which is expanding its long-distance power grid, started up the world\u2019s largest solar plant last month, in Xinjiang.<\/p>\n

But regulatory frameworks and market-based pricing mechanisms are just as important. For much of the West, solar power is just another option in the green energy transition. But for many in the energy-poor Global South, it represents the initial access to grid electricity.<\/p>\n

In Africa, for instance, solar power can fuel industrial development without incurring the devastating pollution costs of Europe and the United States. The scalability of solar power also creates opportunities for distributed power solutions without the need for massive investments in grid infrastructure.<\/p>\n

About 43 per cent of Africa\u2019s population, or 600 million people, lack access to reliable electricity, which is also the main business constraint cited by 40 per cent of African companies in a survey. Unsurprisingly, renewable energy mini-grids have mushroomed in Africa with the growth of the distributed renewable energy (DRE) sector. Large factories are getting \u201cinside the fence\u201d captive power; more than 400 million Africans access electricity via solar home systems.In April, the World Bank and African Development Bank announced a plan to provide electricity access to at least 300 million people in Africa by 2030, mostly through DRE systems. If successful, Africa could become a world leader in the new paradigm of distributed power, bypassing years of uncertain waiting for state grids to expand.<\/p>\n

For China, this could be a pivotal moment to transform its role in Africa\u2019s burgeoning solar energy market. It could move beyond supplying equipment to embrace a role as a developer and operator of solar energy projects, capitalising on its complementary strengths in solar PVs, batteries and mobile payment.<\/p>\n

The doors to the US market may be closed but China can still shape development in a most important growth market in Africa. As margins in the solar supply chain become razor thin, solar energy operations can take their place as a much more profitable and sustainable business. It could even become the cornerstone of the Belt and Road Initiative in Africa, from powering mines to energising industrial parks, to create integrated industrial ecosystems.<\/p>\n

Solar energy operations not only promise to be more economically viable, they also have social impact. And the modular and scalable nature of solar installations allows for adaptive deployment, ranging from small off-grid systems to large utility-scale projects. The much shorter implementation times offer quicker returns on investment. It also allows for greater private-sector involvement and reduces dependence on state entities, streamlining project development and increasing efficiency.<\/p>\n

In Africa, solar energy operations are far more likely to require partnerships between Chinese, international and African business entities in collaboration with, rather than led by, state actors. This business-led approach \u2013 emphasising collaboration, innovation and community empowerment \u2013 would be a fundamental departure from previous state-driven Belt and Road Initiative projects.<\/p>\n

To be successful, Chinese companies would need to develop new competencies in navigating the regulatory environment, managing stakeholders, developing innovative business models and mastering intercultural partnerships.<\/p>\n

By making a decisive shift from infrastructure construction to spearheading the continent\u2019s green electrification, China can catalyse Africa\u2019s sustainable industrialisation.<\/p>\n

This business-driven approach to distributed solar power has the potential to illuminate millions of lives and energise economies \u2013 cementing China\u2019s role as Africa\u2019s indispensable partner. In doing so, China will not only help unlock Africa\u2019s vast potential but also show a new course for inclusive South-South cooperation.<\/p>\n
