The cost of carbon neutrality is too expensive. How to find a cheaper and more feasible approach to realize it? This paper studies the innovative development mode of PV for PV-Max speed. Through the three-stage “PV for PV” development plan, After 2023, China's annual capacity can reach 400 GW, with a total investment of about $96 billion. After 2032, China's PV installation can reach 4000 GW, annual power generation is 5200TWh, and annual CO2 emission reduction is 4.4 Gt. After 2033, it will be an export period, with an annual export revenue of $54 billion. By 2046, it will be able to export a total of 5300 GW, with an annual power generation of 6890 TWh. It will reduce the CO2 emissions of 10.2 Gt for the world every year. If the PV plant is built in the three northern regions of China, combined with desertification control, the western desert will become a "green valley".
