China installed a record capacity of solar and
China saw monumental solar and wind growth in 2024, according to data released today by its National Energy Administration (NEA).
Planned solar capacity projects will likely lead to continued growth in China's solar capacity. More than 720 GW of solar capacity are in development: about 250 GW under construction, nearly 300 GW in pre-construction phases, and 177 GW of announced projects, according to the Global Solar Power Tracker compiled by Global Energy Monitor.
With the April 2025 additions, China's aggregate installed solar power generation capacity has reached 990 GW, with a 47.7% year-on-year (YoY) increase. The China Photovoltaic Industry Association (CPIA) has forecast between 215 GW and 255 GW of new PV capacity additions for 2025, after growing by 277 GW in 2024.

As the world's largest energy consumer, China's commitment to renewable energy and its pursuit of a more sustainable energy future have positioned it as a global leader in solar photovoltaic power generation, playing a crucial role in the f
t is projected that China's new solar power capacity will reach 200GW. The strong support from the Chinese government for renewable energy, coupled with the urgent domestic demand for clean energy, has provided a significant imp
China saw monumental solar and wind growth in 2024, according to data released today by its National Energy Administration (NEA).
The 400-megawatt Yantai Zhaoyuan offshore solar farm, located in the Laizhou Bay in Shandong province, has successfully commenced full-capacity power generation.
Note: NEA considers utility-scale solar to include projects of at least six megawatts of installed alternating current capacity. Utility-scale solar power capacity in China reached more than
