Will China add 200 million kilowatts of new wind and photovoltaic power?

audio is not supported! (Yicai) Dec. 16 -- China will add more than 200 million kilowatts of new wind and photovoltaic power generation capacity next year as it accelerates the green and low-carbon transformation of its energy sector, according to the National Energy Work Conference 2026.

How big is China's solar power pipeline?

China is advancing a nearly 1.3 terawatt (TW) pipeline of utility-scale solar and wind capacity, leading the global effort in renewable energy buildout. This is in addition to China's already operating 1.4 TW of solar and wind capacity, nearly 10% of which (141 gigawatts (GW)) came online in 2024.

Why did China add more solar power in May?

In May alone, China added 92.92 GW of new capacity, a 105.48% increase from April and the highest monthly figure on record. Analysts attribute the surge to favorable government policies, including support for distributed solar and mechanisms allowing renewable energy to participate in electricity market trading.

How many solar panels are installed in China?

Around 92 GW of new PV systems were installed in China in May alone, but analysts warn the pace may slow in the second half of the year. China's cumulative installed solar capacity has surpassed 1 TW, according to the National Energy Administration (NEA). By the end of May 2025, solar capacity had reached 1.08 TW (1,080 GW), up 56.9% year on year.
