Fishman, an energy analyst at the Lantau Group, an economic consultancy firm in Shanghai, was keen to meet with developers in Shandong to understand how China is developing extensive rooftop solar installations at such a remarkable pace.
The research underscores the significant role of rooftop PV in achieving China’s energy and climate goals in its northwestern urban centers. In China, more than 75% of electricity is still generated using "dirty" coal, resulting in substantial emissions of NO x, CO 2, and SO 2 into the environment.
2030 is a critical milestone for China in achieving carbon peak, and large-scale deployment of rooftop photovoltaics is one of the key measures to support this goal in response to national planning and design. Hence, this study selects the summer of 2030 as the simulated period .
The northwest region, with its solar potential, is a focal point for distributed PV growth, which has already exceeded 50% of the energy mix by 2021. This study assesses the rooftop PV potential in five northwestern capitals, finding favorable conditions such as ample space, dense populations, and high sunlight exposure.
At the same time, the Whole County PV programme provides an opportunity to revitalize rural China, local officials say. For example, homeowners can receive extra income by lending their rooftops to solar developers, or by selling the power generated by their rooftop system, Fishman says. The plan seems to be working.
Shandong is leading China’s rooftop solar-development initiatives, accounting for 18% of such projects across the country. As of March, the province had installed 33 gigawatts (GW) of distributed solar capacity, enough to power an estimated 18 million homes.

Therefore, it is important to understand the power generations under different climatic scenarios and development modes to provide planning and ...
HANGZHOU -- Cainiao Network, Alibaba''s logistics arm, switched on the new rooftop photovoltaic (PV) power generation facilities at its bonded warehouses in East China''s Zhejiang province on Thursday.
China has been pioneering the rooftop solar revolution. The country possesses a technical solar potential of 2,070 GW. The cumulative solar installations in China had reached 609 GW by the end of 2023. The country is expected to achieve 1 TW solar PV capacity by 2026, with the distributed solar segment expected to account for nearly 50 per cent ...
China''s pursuit of photovoltaic (PV) power, particularly rooftop installations, addresses energy and ecological challenges, aiming to reduce basic energy consumption by 50% by 2030. The northwest region, with its solar potential, is a focal point for distributed PV growth, which has already exceeded 50% of the energy mix by 2021. This study ...

It is shown that the proportions of thermal power generations in all the provinces have been declining from 2015 to 2023, while the generations from solar and other energy sources have been rising, suggesting the increasing improvement of China''s energy structure. Despite abundant solar energy in China, the proportions of solar power generation have been …
Renewables could account for up to 80% of China''s power generation by 2060. As China seeks to decarbonize its energy sector, it will also need to simultaneously expand power resources to meet rapidly growing electricity demand. China''s eastern region is experiencing an urgent electricity deficit. As of 2022, the region''s annual electricity demand exceeded 4 trillion …
Since sweeping sector reforms to China''s power dispatch and pricing policy in November 2021, coal-fired power plants must compete for dispatch in the wholesale power market, along with every other generation type. As these reforms have taken root, a nascent merchant market model has emerged (i.e., a wholesale market where plants compete to sell …
