An innovation-focused roadmap for a sustainable global photovoltaic industry (2014, background): “As the market grows, production of PV modules benefits from both economies of scale and “learning”, where accumulated operating experience leads to innovation and cost reductions through both learning-by-doing and learning-by-searching (Qiu and Anadon, 2012).”
The experience curve theory and its application in the field of electricity generation technologies – A literature review (2018, background): “[129] China Installed capacity Price of electricity 2003-2007 8 0.”
Up-scaling, formative phases, and learning in the historical diffusion of energy technologies (2012, background): “Qiu and Anadon (2012) found economies of scale at the wind farm level in China explained roughly twice as much of the observed cost reductions as learning-by-doing, though the effects of both were dwarfed by the domestication of wind turbine manufacturing to exploit lower labour and material costs.”
