Since 2018, solar has been more dominant in China’s power investment, as incremental capacity statistics indicate: 2020H1: China added 11.52GW new solar capacity (7.08GW mounted and 4.43 distributed); while the nation only installed 6.82GW additional wind units. Solar is almost double the size of incremental wind.
China's pivotal role in solar energy expansion is underscored by its massive investment and robust government support. Leading the world in solar production, China hosts several of the largest solar farms globally, including the notable Tengger Desert Solar Park, capable of powering 600,000 homes.

[Photo by YAO FENG/FOR CHINA DAILY] A report by the International Energy Agency, or IEA, on the future of renewable energy production has pinpointed China, and in particular its solar power capabilities, as leading the way for the world in the years to come.
China added almost twice as much utility-scale solar and wind power capacity in 2023 than in any other year. By the first quarter of 2024, China’s total utility-scale solar and wind capacity reached 758 GW, though data from China Electricity Council put the total capacity, including distributed solar, at 1,120 GW.
[READ MORE: China’s 2020H1 Power Market Statistics] 2019: solar provided 26.81GW incremental capacity, slightly higher than 25.74GW of the wind market. 2018: it is a milestone year for solar. The sector added 45.25GW new capacity, while the wind market only added 21.27GW.
Our analysis shows that investment in clean power generation and energy storage capacity reached 1.7tn yuan in 2023 (up 48% year-on-year), while investment in manufacturing capacity for solar, EVs and batteries reached 2.5tn yuan (+60%).
