China＇s　solar　photovoltaic　(PV)　industry　has　experienced　a　rapid　progress　in　the　last　10　year.　To　achieve　the　sustainable　development　of　the　solar　PV　industry　in　China,　it　is　necessary　to　review　the　emergence　path　of　the　industry,　and　analyze　the　future　development　of　the　industry.　This　paper　firstly　reviews　the　emergence　path　of　China＇s　solar　PV　industry　based　on　technology　roadmapping　from　R&D,　technology,　production,　market　and　policy　to　understand　the　characteristics　of　the　industry,　and　identifies　the　problems　impeding　China＇s　solar　PV　industry　development.　Then,　in　order　to　analyze　the　future　development　path　of　China＇s　solar　PV　industry,　the　bibliometric　method　is　applied　to　analyze　the　development　status　of　China＇s　dye-sensitized　solar　cells　technology.　Finally,　combined　with　the　analysis　results　of　the　emergence　path　of　China＇s　solar　PV　industry　and　the　bibliometric　method,　the　policy　recommendations　for　the　future　development　of　China＇s　solar　PV　industry　are　presented.　These　results　can　be　a　useful　reference　for　the　development　of　solar　PV　industry　in　China,　and　other　developing　countries　around　the　world　can　benefit　from　this　study　to　develop　their　own　solar　PV　industry　or　others　emerging　industry.　©　2013　PICMET.
