Yingli Green Energy (Yingli Solar) has participated in the 2015 China Photovoltaic (PV) Industry Development Symposium held today, April 14, 2015, in Baoding, Hebei Province, China to discuss strategies and future of China’s PV industry.
Symposium attendees discussed how to accelerate improvements in technology, manufacturing, and equipment in China's PV industry under the "new normal". Government officials from the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), National Energy Administration (NEA), Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) and other departments delivered presentations. Attendees include representatives from the China Development Bank, Export-Import Bank of China, Bank of China, China Merchants Bank, the China Photovoltaic Industry Association (CPIA) and Chinese Renewable Energy Industry Association, as well as executives from China's foremost solar energy companies.
"We are pleased to participate in this important symposium and appreciate CPIA's leadership in organizing the event,” commented Mr. Liansheng Miao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yingli Green Energy. “In light of rising domestic and international demand for solar energy solutions, China's PV industry is at the cusp of extraordinary opportunities, but challenges around financing, technology, and 'overcapacity' must be addressed. We believe this forum will help key stakeholders respond to these challenges under China's 'One Belt and One Road' initiatives, promote the sound development and increase the competitiveness of China's PV industry."
