经历了一个时期的爆发式增长后，光伏行业竞争日趋激烈，这种趋势随着美国对华光伏产品“双反”又起波澜，行业整合过程中，众多国内光伏厂商纷纷停产整顿，严峻的形势促使企业找寻出路，如何降低组件成本、提高组件光电转换率成为了业内人士讨论的热点话题。在7月12日举办的2012年海南国际旅游岛光伏产业论坛中，国家科技部等有关部委、专家学者及企业代表200余人相聚一堂，探讨如何应对产业危机及危机过后产业的发展方向。与会嘉宾一致认为，当前形势下，高效率、低成本成为 太阳能光伏发电的发展趋势。

据悉，美国“双反”和欧债危机使投资者和金融机构信心不足，众多光伏企业难以为继，行业进入深度整合期，但参会嘉宾纷纷表示，随着传统能源缺口的逐步增大、光伏产品原材料硅价格的不断下降和各国对清洁能源应用认识不断加强，可以预见光伏行业的整合期即将结束，前景一片光明。

论坛嘉宾预测，高效率、低成本将成为太阳能光伏发电的发展趋势，光伏产品应用也将更多的从地面和屋顶电站向自给式分布式应用发展，最终实现清洁电力的平价上网成为重要能源提供者。但目前光伏组件成本偏高导致发电成本高于传统发电方式，因此降低组件成本迫在眉睫。光伏巨头英利集团作为行业代表参加了本次论坛，英利集团首席技术官宋登元博士在发言时说：“当期市场环境下，企业要生存就只有不断降低成本、提高产品竞争力。英利集团依托光伏材料与技术国家重点实验室的技术支持，加强自主创新，同时通过对新材料、新工艺的运用和培养员工创新意识，鼓励员工对生产工艺进行优化等手段，将降成本分解到产业链的各个环节，积极探索和尝试，逐步降低组件价格。

After a period of explosive growth, the competition in the photovoltaic industry has become increasingly fierce. This trend has been surging with the "double anti" of photovoltaic products from the United States to China. In the process of industry integration, many domestic photovoltaic manufacturers have stopped production one after another for rectification. The grim situation urges enterprises to find a way out, how to reduce the cost of modules and how to improve the quality of photovoltaic products Improving the photoelectric conversion rate has become a hot topic in the industry. At the 2012 Hainan International Tourism Island photovoltaic industry forum held on July 12, more than 200 people from the Ministry of science and technology and other relevant ministries, experts, scholars and enterprise representatives gathered to discuss how to deal with the industrial crisis and the development direction of the industry after the crisis. Participants agreed that under the current situation, high efficiency and low cost have become the development trend of solar photovoltaic power generation.
