BEIJING (Bloomberg): China’s solar industry is facing potential raw material and labour shortages amid efforts to contain the coronavirus, curbing their ability to resume full production. Manufacturers run a higher risk of shortages should factory shutdowns be extended, according to the China Photovoltaic Industry Association, citing feedback from companies. The movement of solar material and components is also a challenge. The association has been seeking feedback from solar companies over the impact of the virus on their supply chains. LONGi Green Energy, one of China’s biggest solar companies, has said it sees no significant impact on its panel sales and production.
