The Chinese government has demonstrated a significant commitment to the advancement of renewable energy, particularly solar energy, over the past two decades. The nation has an installed solar power capacity of 393,032 MW.
In 2023, China commissioned as much solar PV as the entire world did in 2022 while its wind additions also grew by 66% year-on-year. Over the past five years, China also added 11 GW of nuclear power, by far the largest of any country in the world.
Furthermore, the International Energy Agency (IEA) released a roadmap in 2021, forecasting that solar and wind power will contribute approximately 80 % of China's total electricity supply by 2060, with an installed PV capacity exceeding 4 TW, surpassing wind power capacity .
While China, the US, and Japan are the top three installers, China's relative contribution accounts for nearly 37% of the entire solar installation in 2022. Fig. 1 illustrates the contribution of energy sources to both electricity generation and total installed power capacity by 2050.
The National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration, in their 2022 Implementation Plan on Promoting New Energy's High-Quality Development, set a target to reach a combined installed capacity of over 1.2 TW for wind and solar power by 2030.
Photovoltaics (PV), a primary form of solar energy utilization, has become pivotal in addressing the energy deficit while fostering economic growth. China, since the early 21st century, has made renewable energy a cornerstone of its future energy plans, actively supporting its development .
