A global transformation is taking place in solar power plants, shifting from standalone generation to integrated solar-plus-storage systems. Driven by government mandates, volatile electricity prices, and new policy incentives, pairing solar panels with batteries is becoming essential for grid stability and a key driver of photovoltaic project profitability. As a leading integrated solutions provider, Sunforson is strategically positioning itself in this rapidly growing market.

China’s Export Policy Adjustment for Solar Batteries Reshapes Global Market

A major factor influencing global storage system supply and pricing is a recent policy shift from China, the world’s largest solar power system manufacturer. To promote high-quality industry growth and curb excessive price competition, China is phasing out Value-Added Tax (VAT) export rebates for renewable energy products.

Timeline of the Policy Change:

Effective Date: April 1, 2026

Affected Products: Solar energy storage batteries

Rebate Change: Reduced from 9% to 0%

This means Chinese solar storage systems will become relatively more expensive for overseas solar project owners. The policy aims to steer the industry away from “involution-style” price competition and toward green, high-quality development. In response, SunForSon has strengthened its cost resilience and delivery stability through global supply chain optimization and localized production strategies.
