In a joint statement issued by the Ministry of Finance and the State Taxation Administration, it was revealed that the export tax rebate rate for photovoltaic products, along with batteries and certain non-metallic mineral products, will be reduced from 13% to 9%.
By referring to the recycling of used electronic products and foreign EOL PV modules recycling, we found that the subsidy ratio is generally 1-3% of the product price. Therefore, the preliminary estimation is that the subsidy amount is 1.5% of the selling price of PV modules, which is about 312 USD/ton.
The simulations for scenarios S1∼S3 are to explore the evolutions of the recycling system under different subsidy mechanisms (other parameters are the same as the baseline scenario). China has not yet issued a subsidy policy for PV module recycling.
