Talent is the core of global competition

In today's world, countries are carrying out fierce competition in various fields such as economy, science and technology, culture, etc., which is ultimately the competition of education and talents. Photovoltaic industry is a strategic emerging industry based on the global demand for clean energy and China's energy security, and it is also a technology-intensive industry that integrates interdisciplinary fields such as electronics, electricity, machinery, automation, materials, etc. It will become the high point of global advanced industrial competition in the future.

After years of development, China's photovoltaic industry, as the "Made in China" business card, has become one of the few emerging industries that can participate in international competition and have a global leading edge, and in 2021 China's photovoltaic workforce has reached 2.46 million. However, in achieving the world's leading manufacturing capacity, but also facing the mass production of photovoltaic cells PERC, TOPCon, HJT, IBC and other original technologies are from Europe, the United States, Japan and other countries, the status quo, China's photovoltaic industry in the laboratory original innovation, compared with the international advanced level is still a gap. For example, in January 2022, the United States Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) released 26 photovoltaic cell world records, the United States holds 11 records, China only 5, crystalline silicon solar cells 26.7% of the highest world efficiency record is still in the hands of Japanese companies. These boil down to the reason in the compound PV talent gap. As a strategic resource, the training and reserve of PV talents will become an important means for the country to occupy the high ground in competition and cooperation, and is also the core foundation for China's PV industry and PV enterprises to achieve sustainable development.

Talent strategy is the top priority for enterprise development

In today's world of carbon neutrality and increasingly fierce international energy competition, the country attaches importance to the basic national policy of establishing the country with talents and elevating the talent strategy to a key strategy of the framework. 2021, in September, President Xi pointed out in the Central Talent Work Conference that we should adhere to the Party's management of talents, thoroughly implement the strategy of strengthening the country with talents in the new era, cultivate, introduce and use talents in all aspects, and accelerate the construction of a world important talent center and innovation highland. . On May 7 this year, the Ministry of Education released the "Work Plan for Strengthening the Construction of Carbon Dafeng Carbon Neutral Higher Education Talent Training System", which requires strengthening the training of talents in wind power, photovoltaic, hydropower and nuclear power, and increasing the construction of teaching resources such as courses and teaching materials in the field of carbon dafeng carbon neutral. At present, dozens of universities, such as Sun Yat-sen University, Nankai University, Nanchang University, North China Electric Power University, have opened new energy majors and courses for photovoltaic and other new energy, training and constantly outputting professional talents for the country. At the business level, the fundamental factor for the development of photovoltaic enterprises lies in continuous technological innovation, and talent is the core competitiveness of enterprises to maintain high-speed and steady development, leading innovation ability, technology level and industry status. Increase investment in scientific research and talent training, especially the introduction of high-tech talent and talent reserves, for the development of enterprises has far-reaching significance.

Enterprises need to establish a perfect PV talent training system and put the talent strategy in the first place. On the one hand, we should pay attention to independent innovation and scientific research investment, attract talents through good scientific research atmosphere and favorable material and spiritual conditions, improve scientific and reasonable talent incentive and assessment mechanism, and provide fertile soil for talents, so that they can come in and stay. On the other hand, we should increase cooperation with universities and research institutes at home and abroad, promote the deep integration of "industry-university-research", make use of the talents of universities, combine with the practice of enterprises, and train and cultivate the compound talents that meet the requirements of enterprises.

New first-tier enterprises know the way of talent

The competition of enterprises is the competition of talents, and the key to win the competition is to build a high quality talent echelon. Companies adhere to the two-wheel drive of external attraction and internal training, in order to build a high-quality talent "engine".

Liu Yong, the chairman of the company, was given the name "together" at the beginning of the business, a new energy in line with employees, customers and partners, "create, advance, win-win, share" the concept, to build a respected and international influence of the first-class new energy enterprise for the vision We aim to build a platform company with outstanding independent innovation ability, respect and love from the society, and an open and harmonious working environment, with a people-oriented approach. Since its inception, together with the new energy has attached great importance to the introduction of top talent, training, and the expansion of technological innovation capacity. The company's R&D team is led by Dr. Deng-Yuan Song, the top scientist of N-type photovoltaic technology who enjoys the special allowance of the State Council, with dozens of top R&D experts who master the core technology of the industry as the core, and has the industry-leading independent innovation capability, with R&D personnel accounting for more than 20% and annual R&D investment accounting for more than 5% of revenue. Scientific research talent base.

Yidao New Energy has successfully built a scientific and reasonable talent ladder cultivation system that combines internal and external aspects. In the future, we will also cooperate with domestic and foreign universities and research institutes to establish provincial and national R&D laboratories, post-doctoral workstations and innovation centers to conduct top-level, cutting-edge and original technology research, and to absorb and train high-level R&D leaders through the integration of "industry-university-research". Guided by the goal of building the "factory of the future", the company also attaches equal importance to the introduction and cultivation of manufacturing talents, and has established order-type talent training with technical colleges and universities in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shanxi, Fujian, Gansu and other intelligent manufacturing bases and explored further establishment of "one class At present, the company has established order-type talent training with technical colleges and universities in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shanxi, Fujian, Gansu and other intelligent manufacturing bases and explored further establishment of "one class" in-depth cooperation mode to continuously input manufacturing talents with professional knowledge for the company's high-end intelligent production line.

Conclusion

As a pillar industry of global energy transformation and an important representative of "Made in China", the long-term development of China's photovoltaic industry is inseparable from the promotion of technological innovation with talent as the core. As a benchmark and role model for the new first-tier PV enterprises, Yidao New Energy will work tirelessly to build a more stable and scientific talent engine for the industry and enterprises to participate in international competition.
