CQC: New Certification Rule for PV materials

2. May 2014

The CQC (China Quality Certification Centre of the People’s Republic of China, Chinese: 中国质量认证中心) announced the implementation of new certification rules for PV materials that includes Backsheet and EVA. Starting May, 2014 the new certification rules to obtain a CQC certificate for PV materials will be become effective:

No. Rule No. Rule Name Category No.
1 CQC33-462214-2013 Certification Rules for Back sheet for Encapsulant Photovoltaic (PV) Module

 

024014
2 CQC33-462215-2013 Certification Rules for Ethylene-vinyl Acetate Copolymer (EVA) Film for Encapsulant

 

024015

The main amendments of the certification rules affect the product tests and the follow-up inspection resulting in an expanded time frame for companies that apply for a CQC certification.

Based on the national solar subsidy program “Golden Sun”, the Chinese demand for solar materials has increased tremendously. In 2013, China was one of the world’s top three solar markets and, thus, accounting for around 17% of the global market. Therefore, non-Chinese manufacturers of PV materials have a great incentive to export their products to China, but will be subject to the new rules and will have to expect an expanded timeframe for the certification process.
