Wind and solar surpassed a quarter of China's electricity generation for the first time in April 2025. China is the largest market in the world for both photovoltaics (PV) and solar thermal energy. Its PV capacity crossed 1,000 gigawatts (one terawatt, 1 TW). . China installed a record 315 GW (AC) of new solar capacity in 2025, lifting cumulative installed PV capacity to 1. China's National Energy Administration (NEA) released its 2025 power sector statistics on Jan. Rapid solar capacity expansion overwhelms the grid, PV manufacturers compete for market shares, and then large target markets slap import tariffs on Chinese PV products, taking off their competitive edge. It's a stunning visual, but it doesn't even begin to capture the staggering amount of solar power being produced by the People's Republic. The report provides a comprehensive overview of PV market development. .

Decarbonization of the energy system is the key to China's goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060. However, the potential of wind and photovoltaic (PV) to power China remains unclear, hindering the holistic layout of the renewable energy development plan. . IEA PVPS has released the latest National Survey Report of PV Power Applications in China 2024, prepared by Task 1 with data from the National Energy Administration (NEA) and the China Photovoltaic Industry Association (CPIA). The report provides a comprehensive overview of PV market development. . The Chinese solar industry is at a pivotal point. Its PV capacity crossed 1,000 gigawatts (one terawatt, 1 TW) in May 2025. In H1 2025, the world added 380 gigawatts (GW) of new solar capacity – a staggering 64% jump compared to the same period in 2024, when 232 GW came online. China is apparently deploying scarce solar assets irrationally, installing substantial numbers of solar panels in several renewables-poor provinces while largely ignoring. .
