Solar Price Rise in spring
From 1st April 2026, China is going to remove export VAT rebates on solar panels and begin reducing rebates on battery products. These China solar VAT changes are a confirmed policy decision, and we wanted to share it with you as it may be relevant if you’re thinking about solar or battery storage over the next year or two.
China is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of solar technology. When policies like this change, they tend to influence pricing and availability gradually over time. There’s no need for concern, but it’s helpful to be aware of what’s ahead so you can make informed decisions.
