Rooftops and buildings in China fitted with solar panels could match the current global capacity of the entire industry, according to new analysis.
Fishman, an energy analyst at the Lantau Group, an economic consultancy firm in Shanghai, was keen to meet with developers in Shandong to understand how China is developing extensive rooftop solar installations at such a remarkable pace.
Most of that rooftop solar has been added in the past two years, as China offered support for local governments to boost installations, and raised power rates to businesses, making generating their own electricity more attractive.
China’s buildings and rooftops have the potential to host more than 1 terawatt of solar power capacity, almost the same size as the entire existing global industry, according to the manufacturer.
It is reported by China's National Energy Administration (CNEA) that more than half of all solar panels installed in 2021 are on rooftops (González-González et al., 2022; Li et al., 2019; Martinez-Rubio et al., 2015).
At the same time, the Whole County PV programme provides an opportunity to revitalize rural China, local officials say. For example, homeowners can receive extra income by lending their rooftops to solar developers, or by selling the power generated by their rooftop system, Fishman says. The plan seems to be working.
