The top exporters of photovoltaic (PV) modules are:China: Dominates the global market with significant exports, accounting for a large portion of the total shipments1.India: Emerging as a major exporter, contributing to the global supply chain1.Vietnam: Also a key player in the PV module export market1.In 2021, China's solar PV exports were valued at over USD 30 billion, and investments in Malaysia and Vietnam have bolstered their export capabilities2. Additionally, LONGi is one of the leading manufacturers, supplying a substantial amount of modules globally3. [pdf]
