WHY PRODUCTION VOLUMES DO NOT MATCH THE INSTALLED CAPACITIES
IEA PVPS tracks down global PV module production volume and installed capacity. It is reasonable to believe that a certain am
projects that are not connected yet. However, if we sum up each year's production volume and compare it with global cumulativ
discrepancies is that in the era of GW level production, outsourcing solar cells or producing PV modules by OEM or ODM contr
demand, avoid ADs and CVDs, or overcome cost pressures. In that respect, a significant share of PV module production could
recognized from the early stage of the PV industry. With the growth of the PV market, the differences between installed capacity
production volumes are different. In all cases, the total production numbers look overestimated and should be refined to approa
