China is leading. In 2023 it installed 55% more solar capacity than the previous year, compared to 12% for the G7 and 5.9% for the rest of the world. For wind capacity, China''s additions rose by 21% in 2023, compared to 4.5% for the G7 and 5.3% for the rest of the world. China was responsible for 63% of the solar additions worldwide in 2023 ...
Last year, China managed to hit a record-breaking number of residential solar power system installations due to the growing number of residential areas. According to the National Energy Administration, a total of 53 gigawatts of solar PV capacity was installed in 2021, which is close enough to the high record hit in 2017.
The numbers highlight that over 216 GW of solar power have been added during 2023, equivalent to 14% of the world’s total installed PV capacity. China’s total installed PV capacity thus increased to 609 GW by the end of 2023. According to Bloomberg News, China installed more solar panels in 2023 than any other single nation has installed in total.
In the first nine months of 2017, China saw 43 GW of solar energy installed in the first nine months of the year and saw a total of 52.8 GW of solar energy installed for the entire year. 2017 is currently the year with the largest addition of solar energy capacity in China.
China can now make more solar power than the rest of the world. Data released by China’s National Agency last week revealed that the country’s solar electric power generation capacity grew by a staggering 55.2 percent in 2023. The numbers highlight over 216 gigawatts (GW) of solar power China built during the year.
Most of China's solar power is generated within its western provinces and is transferred to other regions of the country. In 2011, China owned the largest solar power plant in the world at the time, the Huanghe Hydropower Golmud Solar Park, which had a photovoltaic capacity of 200 MW.
In 2021, China hit a breaking record of a solar power capacity with 54.9 gigawatts to its grid. According to China’s energy authority, the country managed to increase the capacity by 14% compared to the capacity made by the previous year, while gaining 31% of its total capacity additions over the year.
