Currently, the capacity of PV in China is growing rapidly. By the end of 2020, the cumulative installed capacity of PV in China had reached 253 GW, with a growth of 23.5% compared to 2019. The new growth of installed capacity of PV was 48.2 GW, which topped the 2020 global solar energy market (IRENA, 2020).
In the year of 2017, the quantity of the solar energy curtailment was 7300 GW h in China and the rate of solar energy curtailment was about 6% . The quantity of solar energy rejection in the northwest reaches 6670 GW h , accounting for 91.4% of the total quantity of solar energy curtailment .
As China has the world's largest installed capacity of solar energy, the development of the solar power generation in China will have a profound impact on the healthy development of the global solar power industry. Based on the China's experience, the following suggestions are given for the other countries:
Comparing with the data of the year 2016, the new installed capacity of PV power has increased by 32%. By the end of 2017, China's new grid connected installed capacity of PV power generation was 53.06 GW and the cumulative installed capacity reached 130.25 GW , which is 68.7% more than the data of the year of 2016 .
The days of utilization refer to the days of sunshine duration greater than 6 h and the monthly average temperature is higher than 10 degrees. Table 2. The available hours of solar energy in different regions in China. Table was translated based on the following reference: Li, J, Wang, S. China solar Report of 2007.
With addition of 48.2 GW in 2020, China’s installed capacity of solar PV rose to 253.4 GW (12), far ahead of a target of 105 GW set for 2020 in the 13th 5-y plan (17). The large-scale installation of solar power both globally and in China has promoted improvements in PV conversion efficiencies and reductions in generation costs.

As the world''s largest carbon emitter, China has pledged to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. An essential pathway to the carbon neutrality goal is to promote the replacement of coal-fired power generation with low or zero-carbon energy sources [1], [2].Solar power, especially solar photovoltaic (PV), will be one of the main energy sources in the future …
Solar power is vital for China''s future energy pathways to achieve the goal of 2060 carbon neutrality. Previous studies have suggested that China''s solar energy resource potential …
In the same year, China''s non-fossil energy accounts for only 15.9% of total energy consumption [2]. According to the latest government policy, this proportion will increase to more than 80% in 2060 [3]. Renewable energy, primarily wind and solar, is anticipated to become the dominant electricity source [1, 4, 5, 6].
On condition that the daily energy output from the collector at any azimuth and tilted angle equals to that of the south-facing one with the optimal tilt, this paper takes Kunming and Beijing as the southern and northern representative cities in China, and the area compensations for the different kinds of solar collectors used in the different regions have …
From 2011 to 2017, China''s investment in solar power generation fluctuated due to power demands, policy changes, and other factors. From 2011 to 2017, the cumulative investment in solar power generation was 147.1 billion RMB, accounting for 5.78% of the total investment in the power generation industry.
Solar power is vital for China''s future energy pathways to achieve the goal of 2060 carbon neutrality. Previous studies have suggested that China''s solar energy resource potential surpass the projected nationwide power demand in 2060, yet the uncertainty quantification and cost competitiveness of such resource potential are less studied ...
