Most of China's solar power is generated within its western provinces and is transferred to other regions of the country. In 2011, China owned the largest solar power plant in the world at the time, the Huanghe Hydropower Golmud Solar Park, which had a photovoltaic capacity of 200 MW.
China continues its relentless expansion of solar power capacity, now home to the world’s largest solar plant. The 2.2 gigawatt facility spans an area of over 25 square kilometers in the Gobi desert. This $3 billion flagship project demonstrates the epic scale of renewable infrastructure developing worldwide.
Of the total global solar PV capacity, 35.45% is in China. Listed below are the five largest active solar PV power plants by capacity in China, according to GlobalData’s power plants database. GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of the global solar PV power segment.
Located in Datong City, Shanxi Province, it is the country's 3rd largest solar power plant. China's National Energy Administration aimed to install solar plants in this area. After successful completion of the project's 1st phase in 2016, this solar plant now has a total capacity of 1.1 gigawatts.
In June 2024, China activated the world's largest solar power facility, a 3.5-gigawatt (GW) installation in Urumqi, Xinjiang. Built by Power Construction Corporation of China, this plant produces around 6.09 billion kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity annually.
China is a solar energy hub that houses a number of the world's largest solar power plants. Over the last few years, China, which is the top emitter of greenhouse gases (GHG), has increased its share of renewable electricity generation.
