The concept of the intelligent PV industry was introduced in 2018, encouraging the integration of artificial intelligence, big data, and other technologies with the PV industry to enhance its position in the global value chain. New forms of PV utilization, such as energy internet, smart energy, and new energy microgrids, were proposed.
In this regard, governments may employ politically motivated interventions to support the adoption of PV systems and foster markets that favor this technology. Nonetheless, it is important to note that such initiatives may temporarily disrupt the functioning of a natural market. 3. Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
