In the future, Panasonic will use solar cells purchased from other companies to focus on the housing energy management business integrating new energy with batteries and control equipment. In the past, Panasonic's solar cell business had the largest share in the world through its subsidiary, former Sanyo Electric, but its profitability declined due to price competition with Chinese manufacturers. < / P > < p > Matsushita Shimane plant will continue to produce power regulators to convert the direct current of solar cells into alternating current that can be used at home. Another domestic manufacturer, the car solar panel factory in Otsuka, Osaka Prefecture, plans to transfer employees. < / P > < p > in the future, Panasonic will focus on the development and sales of power management system, which simplifies the energy use of families by connecting solar cells with batteries and control devices. Panasonic has built a smart city in fujizawa City, Kanagawa Prefecture, and expanded its sales by taking advantage of the "tuyere" of the decarbonization society. < / P > < p > Panasonic's solar cell production originated from former Sanyo Electric Co., Ltd., which became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Panasonic in 2011. Due to its high efficiency, it used to be the "leader" in the global market. However, due to the price competition with overseas manufacturers, the business has been in a loss since 2017. < / P > < p > in September last year, Tesla, the US electric vehicle manufacturer, and Panasonic terminated their cooperation in solar cell production. < / P > < p > in 2017, science magazine of the United States predicted that by 2030, the total installed photovoltaic capacity in the world will reach between 3 billion kw and 10 billion kw. < / P > < p > in the past 10 years, China's photovoltaic industry has expanded rapidly, commercial technology has repeatedly broken world records, and has developed into a technology industry with the leading edge of the whole industry chain. < / P > < p > according to a study by McKinsey consulting company, photovoltaic industry is one of the leading industries in the world with great competitive advantage in China. < / P > < p > when it comes to China's photovoltaic industry, we have to say that Longji chose monocrystalline silicon in its early years instead of the mainstream < a target = "in the market at that time_ blank" href=" https://news.163.com/news/search?keyword=%E5%A4%9A%E6%99%B6%E7%A1%85 "> polycrystalline silicon < / a > - as the raw material for manufacturing solar panels, it continuously reduces the cost of single crystal silicon, and finally realizes the market upgrading.
