In July, China hit its target of having 1,200 gigawatts of installed solar and wind capacity, enough to power hundreds of millions of homes each year, six years early. There is more to come: around two-thirds of all new solar and wind power projects under construction are happening in China.
China's State Council Information Office on Thursday released a white paper titled "China's Energy Transition." II. Promoting Green Energy Consumption III. Moving Faster to Build a New Energy Supply System IV. Developing New Quality Productive Forces in the Energy Sector VI. Contributing to a Global Community of Shared Future
Indeed, China is leading the way in renewables development. In July 2024, new data from Global Energy Monitor (GEM) found that China is building almost twice as much wind and solar energy capacity as every other country in the world combined, with 180GW of utility-scale solar and 159GW of wind power already under construction.
China has taken steps to accommodate the green and low-carbon transition of its energy sector by establishing a system of standards for clean energy. It has introduced a catalogue of industries that support the transition, and has formulated and improved industrial support policies accordingly.
Employing a five-year incremental approach, the research tracks the electricity generation and PII of various types of RE in China for the years 2010, 2015, and 2020 (shown in Fig. 7 and Table 5). Firstly, it systematically reviewed the five-year development plans for RE, outlining policy goals and key deployments.
