面对供应过剩、价格战以及欧盟、印度、巴基斯坦和巴西等主要出口市场日益增长的保护主义威胁，中国领先的光伏出口商——包括天合光能、隆基绿能和通威股份——承诺停止在海外市场的价格下调竞争。这一举措旨在稳定出口市场，推动行业可持续发展。 主要动态 行业协作： 由 中国机电产品进出口商会 牵头成立了由 22家光伏企业 组成的“自律”委员会，致力于促进健康竞争，稳定出口价格。 政策调整： 自 12月1日 起，硅片、电池片和组件的出口退税率将从 13% 降至 9% ，旨在鼓励出口高附加值产品，减少反倾销调查风险。 产能过剩危机： 过度生产导致价格下滑，造成大量亏损、裁员，甚至企业破产，给中国光伏企业带来沉重压力。 全球影响： 中国在光伏出口市场的主导地位受到越来越多的关注，外国市场可能采取反补贴措施，这为行业增加了更多的不确定性。 专家观点 大和证券分析师Dennis Ip： 退税率下调可能对光伏组件公司的短期财务状况产生负面影响，但从长期来看影响有限。 隆基绿能的观点： 行业领导者认为，这一举措是中国光伏行业的“转折点”，强调合作对于维持全球竞争力的重要性。 展望 随着中国光伏企业努力实现市场稳定，向高附加值产品和合作战略的转型有望改善行业的全球形象和长期韧性。然而， 产能过剩 和 退税减少 的直接挑战依然严峻。在国际市场压力下，如何平衡短期财务影响与长期发展需求，将成为行业关键议题
The UK government faces a growing risk of losing corporate trust following last month’s budget, warned Rupert Soames, chair of the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), at the organization’s annual conference.
Soames cautioned that businesses were blindsided by rising employment costs and could sour on the Labour government within the next six to 12 months unless decisive action is taken.
Key Concerns
- Higher Employment Costs:
- The budget introduced £40 billion (US$50 billion) in new taxes, with much of it tied to an increase in national insurance, a payroll levy.
- Impact on Trust:
- Soames emphasized that while trust isn't entirely lost, Labour has “ground to regain” to restore corporate confidence.
- “That jelly, once it sets, will be really hard to shift,” he warned.
Business Sentiment
- Investment Concerns: Salman Amin, CEO of Pladis Foods Ltd (maker of McVitie’s and Jacob’s crackers), said the UK is becoming a less attractive place for investment, citing unclear incentives for businesses.
- ‘Damage Control’ Mode:
- A CBI survey revealed nearly half of British companies plan to cut jobs following the tax-hiking budget.
Calls for Action
Soames suggested that policy changes in areas like the employment bill, apprenticeship levy, and rates reform could help offset the disappointment caused by tax increases.
- Encouragement, Not Force: He noted that governments cannot mandate business growth but can “cajole and encourage” it.
Opposition Engagement
- Kemi Badenoch, opposition leader, also addressed the conference, as businesses looked for clarity and reassurance amidst growing concerns.
The Bigger Picture
The UK government’s ability to recover business confidence is critical for long-term investment and growth. However, with trust on shaky ground, the Labour government must act swiftly to prevent permanent damage to its relationship with the corporate sector.
“The case for investment in Britain must be made clearer,” said Amin, reflecting the sentiment of many business leaders.
