Summary: PV demand at home and abroad continues to improve, which is expected to accelerate volume. Domestic: The new installed capacity of photovoltaics nationwide reached 12.90GW in May, a year-on-year increase of 88.9%. US: In Q1 2023, the installed capacity of the US solar industry hit a quarterly high, with PV module imports reaching 12GW. Europe: LevelTenEnergy, the world's largest PPA market operator, launched PPA auctions, and local manufacturers' expansion plans lagged behind demand, and the gap is still obvious in the short term. Middle East: Chinese modules were imported to 1,020MW in May, up slightly month-on-month, and Saudi Arabia's large power station projects accelerated, accounting for 40% of Middle East module imports. Africa: South Africa has a high demand for renewable energy due to power cuts and power cuts, and since the beginning of this year, it has imported more than 2.6GW of photovoltaic modules from January to May, an increase of nearly 4.5 times over last year.
