Does China have a business model for distributed solar photovoltaic (dspv)?
China is a world leader in the global solar photovoltaic industry, and has rapidly expanded its distributed solar photovoltaic (DSPV) power in recent years. However, China's DSPV power is still in its infancy. As such, its business model is still in the exploratory stage, and faces many developmental obstacles.
What business models do solar power companies use?
Further, business models such as online fund-raising, “individual rooftop leasing of PV power plant”, “Internet + PV”, and “PV +” remain immature, so that they have little value for advancement. The remaining three business models—the host-owned, EMC model, and TPO model—have been in place for a long time and have a wide range of applications.
They contain the nature of value proposition, value creation and value delivery in the process of solar businesses. The business models are concentrated around the way rooftops are being utilized for solar PV installation. Accordingly four business models could be discovered in the markets which are explained through the following diagrams. 1.1.1.

There are four types of studies about China's DSPV power business models. The first type of study considers business models from the perspective of the quantity of electricity settled. These mainly include three modes: feed-in tariffs, net metering and self-generation, and self-consumption with excess sold to the grid [8, 79, 80, 81].
The solar PV industry in China is experiencing increased domestic growth, after many years of being mainly export-oriented. Despite recent declines in prices of solar PV panels, the industry still enjoys much political and financial support from the central government and local governments.
