Rooftop solar PV installations in China may surge in the next three years as the country goes through a green energy transition and plans to make renewable energy a key cornerstone in the country's path to a greener economy, a recent research report said.
The growth of Residential rooftop solar (RRS) in some western countries has predominantly been driven by individual or market behaviour and has been extensively studied. However, the development landscape of RRS in China differs, and its driving mechanisms remain unclear.
The National Development and Reform Commission said earlier in March the country should accelerate the development of rooftop solar projects and ensure half of the newly built public institutions will be covered by rooftop solar panels in 2025.
Rooftop installations in China increased to 27.3 gigawatts in 2021 from 19.4 GW in 2017, and the growth should keep rising for the rooftop solar market, a Rystad Energy analysis piece said. Before 2017, rooftop solar was almost non-existent, with only 4 GW of installed capacity in 2016.
The country's rapid development of rooftop solar capacity is also driven by government incentives. Newly added annual installed capacity for solar stations has been around 30 GW on average over the past few years, China New Energy Investment and Financing Alliance said.
Domestic solar company Risen Energy said as the cost of solar power generation gradually falls and as solar power consumption capacity rises, distributed solar including rooftop solar will embrace a broader market share and the company plans to continue expanding its presence in the domestic rooftop solar market.

Since 2009, China has been promoting the application of solar energy in the field of construction, implementing the "Golden Sun Project" to provide financial subsidies for rooftop PV power generation projects. Since 2014, solar architecture has been vigorously promoted as one of the important ways of targeted poverty alleviation. The BIPV represents the …
Residential rooftop solar (RRS) for electricity generation is essential in the new power system and vital during the low-carbon green energy transformation, which is being adopted globally (Moore and Bullard, 2021). In recent years, China''s RRS has been expanding rapidly, with the annual growth rate ranking first in the world. However, RRS ...
This is not a common arrangement. Nationally, next-to-no government or public buildings have rooftop solar installations.
