- 建議計劃每年為可再生能源補貼籌集1000-2000億元
- 通威致力于成為世界上最大的太陽(yáng)能電池制造商
“中國政府應該利用碳稅為太陽(yáng)能發(fā)電補貼籌資。”通威集團董事局主席劉漢元說(shuō)。通威集團目前正在規劃大型投資來(lái)擴大其太陽(yáng)能電池業(yè)務(wù)。
“如果中國設立10到20元(1.6美元至3.2美元)每噸的碳排放稅,則每年可以募集1000到2000億元資金用于可再生能源補貼。”劉漢元在周日、全國人民代表大會(huì )開(kāi)幕前于北京舉行的新聞發(fā)布會(huì )上表示,而這也是他本次將提交中國最高立法機構的議案中的觀(guān)點(diǎn)。劉漢元作為全國人大代表,將出席本月在中國首都舉行的全國人大會(huì )議。
劉漢元的觀(guān)點(diǎn)部分來(lái)自于他長(cháng)期從事的事業(yè)和不斷擴大的公司規模。通威集團旗下通威股份在去年十一月曾發(fā)布消息,計劃斥資120億元打造兩個(gè)太陽(yáng)能電池工廠(chǎng),這將使通威成為全球最大的太陽(yáng)能電池制造商,并幫助實(shí)現其電池產(chǎn)能30GW的目標。
中國國家能源局的數據顯示,中國新增了創(chuàng )紀錄的53GW的太陽(yáng)能發(fā)電裝機容量,而據彭博新能源財經(jīng)的樂(lè )觀(guān)預測,今年中國可能再增加多達65GW的太陽(yáng)能發(fā)電裝機容量。
政府的負擔
“截至去年年底,由于附加電費不足以覆蓋補貼,中國政府已拖欠太陽(yáng)能開(kāi)發(fā)商約1000億元補貼費用。”中國國家能源局官員程晨璐(音譯)一月曾表示。
“同時(shí)中國應該針對光伏產(chǎn)業(yè)進(jìn)行減稅,因為中國需要進(jìn)行能源轉型以減少空氣污染。”劉漢元說(shuō)。他希望中國能夠依靠市場(chǎng)化機制來(lái)決定太陽(yáng)能發(fā)電裝機的規模,而不是設定指標。
在談到美國針對其他國家制造的太陽(yáng)能設備所征收的關(guān)稅時(shí),劉漢元表示這可能最終同時(shí)傷害到美國以及其他國家。

Board Chairman of Tongwei Group Calls for Carbon Tax to Fund Solar Subsidies
Plan aims to raise 100-200 billion yuan a year for renewables
Tongwei strives to become the world’s largest solar-cell maker
The Chinese government should use carbon taxes to fund solar power subsidies, said Liu Hanyuan, board chairman of Tongwei Group,which is planning big investments to expand its solar-cell manufacturing business.
If China set a 10 to 20 yuan ($1.6 to $3.2) per ton tax for carbon emissions, it could generate 100 to 200 billion yuan a year,which then could be used to subsidize renewables, Liu said in a Beijing briefing on Sunday before the start of the National People’s Congress. That’s part of his proposal to China’s top legislative body, in which Liu serves as adelegate. He will be attending the session this month in the nation’s capital.
Liu’s comments come as Tongwei has been expanding its presence in the solar industry. Subsidiary Tongwei Co. said in November it plans to spend 12 billion yuan to build two solar-cell factories, which would make the Chinese firm the world’s biggest manufacturer and help it achieve its goal of 30 gigawatts of cell capacity.
China installed a record 53 gigawatts of solar power capacity last year, according to National Energy Administration data. The nation may add as much as 65 gigawatts this year based on the most optimistic scenario, Bloomberg New Energy Finance forecasts.
Government’s Burden
As of the end of last year, China owed solar developers 100 billion yuan in subsidies as surcharges to electricity billsaren’t enough to cover the handouts, Cheng Chenlu, an official at the National Energy Administration, said in January.
China should also cut taxes for the photovoltaicpower industry as the country needs energy transition and a reduction in air pollution, Liu said on Sunday. He asked for China to rely on a market-basedsystem to determine the scale of solar power installations rather than setting project quotas.
Turning to U.S. duties against solar equipment made outside the country, Liu said they could end up hurting the U.S. as well as other nations.
