Since China is responsible for 80% of the world's polysilicon production, with half of the world's polysilicon produced in Xinjiang, many critics of the forced labor usage have stated that it is difficult for many countries to avoid Chinese made solar power solutions.
Chen et al. developed a comprehensive solar resource assessment system based on the GIS + MCDM method in 2019. This system was applied to the assessment of the potential of PV power generation in the countries under the “Belt and Road” initiative. The results showed that the PV potential of China is 100.8 PWh.
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.
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).
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.
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.

Taking solar deployment as an example, in 2019, the installed capacity of solar power in Northwest China, North China, and Northeast China in areas that have good solar conditions was far more than that of other regions, accounting for about 70% of the total solar installed capacity [54], which is consistent with the distribution of power curtailment shown in …

Although China currently has the world''s largest installed capacity of hydro, solar and wind power, its energy needs are so large that in 2019, renewable sources provided 26% of its electricity generation [4] —compared to 17% in the U.S. [5] —with most of the remainder provided by coal power plants. In early 2020, renewable energy comprised about 40% of China''s total installed …

China is the largest market in the world for both photovoltaics and solar thermal energy. China''s photovoltaic industry began by making panels for satellites, and transitioned to the manufacture of domestic panels in the late 1990s. After substantial government incentives were introduced in 2011, China''s solar power market grew dramatically: the country became the world''s leading installer of photovoltaics
