你了解光伏产业链吗
Are you clear about the industry chain of photovoltaic(PV) system?
Compared with the semiconductor which is also a kind of chip, the photovoltaic industry chain is easier to be realized, however, there are still a lot of technical details.
We can divide the PV industry into seven parts from upstream to downstream to disassemble the entire chain for you:

Upstream Midstream Downstream
1) PV silicon material
-Controlling the upstream of the industry

2) PV silicon wafers
- Monocrystalline silicon has almost dominated the whole market
3) PV cells
Monocrystalline Si Cell Multicrystalline Si Cell
4) PV modules
- The foundation of solar power generation
5) PV auxiliary materials
- Components that contain no silicon


6) PV grid-connected inverter
- The last step of the connection to the power grid
7) PV power station
- The end of the industry
