The city's photovoltaic cells, photovoltaic glass, photovoltaic modules and other major product production capacity accounts for about half of our province. Chuzhou leads China in the solar photovoltaic industry chain. "Although our city's photovoltaic industry has achieved certain results, in the development process, there are still problems such as layout to be optimized and R & D capabilities to be improved. At present, due to multiple factors, photovoltaic companies still face many difficulties in production and operation.
