Overall Summary: 
Photovoltaic power generation is economically viable in middle and east regions of China due to relatively high electricity price thus is ready for large-scale application. To further implement Renewable Energy Development 12th FYP, promote sustainable development of solar power industry, National Energy Administration decides to construct some photovoltaic power generation demonstration areas.
Renewable Energy
RE capital subsidy, grant, or rebate: 
The State implements fixed quota of financial subsidies per unit electricity to PV projects in demonstration areas. For self-produced and self-used electricity and extra electricity sold to grid, there is a unified subsidization criteria. Besides, encourage provinces/autonomous regions/municipalities to use their own financial resources to support construction of PV distributed generation in demonstration areas.
