The total potential for solar radiant energy is 1.7 × 1012 tons of standard coal equivalent per year for the country (Zhang et al., 2009a). China started generating solar photovoltaic (PV) power in the 1960s, and power generation is the dominant form of solar energy (Wang, 2010).
China started generating solar photovoltaic (PV) power in the 1960s, and power generation is the dominant form of solar energy (Wang, 2010). After a long peroid of development, its solar PV industry has achieved unprecedented and dramatic progress in the past 10 years (Bing et al., 2017).
New and cumulative installed capacities of China's solar PV power from 2000 to 2017. In order to effectively coordinate the scale and speed of the solar PV installation with the economic development, China has occasionally set and adjusted the development targets for solar PV power.
Solar energy is used for power generation in two main ways: photovoltaic (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP) (Desideri and Campana, 2014). At present, PV technology in China has become mature after decades of development.
In 2009, the production capacity of PV panels in China nearly reached 4000 MW; a remarkable increase compared with only 5.5 MW of output in 1997 . China is now the largest manufacturer of solar PV products in the world . In addition, the government is investing heavily into this field for relevant scientific research.
China's newly installed photovoltaic capacity has ranked first in the world in recent years. Timely and accurate monitoring of the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of solar power plants is essential to optimize China's renewable energy power distribution and achieve carbon reduction targets.
