6 FAQs about [China s solar power plant policy]

Should China reassess its solar policy?

Over recent decades, China has risen to a preeminent global position in both solar photovoltaic (PV) adoption and production, a feat underpinned by a suite of pivotal policy measures. With a burgeoning demand for PV systems on the horizon, there is an urgent need to reassess past policies and chart new directions.

Does China's solar policy influence the development of the solar industry?

However, based on the limited studies on China’s solar PV policies, the literature only lists China’s existing PV solar policies , , which cannot explain the dynamic trajectory of Chinese solar policy and its relation to the development of the industry.

What is China's PV solar policy?

China is a quick policy learner that can follow the international policy experience and import them to China. However, Chinese PV solar policy is lack of strategic policy research. For example, the policies that had been launched were mostly made without the guidance of national energy portfolio strategy.

Why are solar energy projects being halted in China?

The government incentives have also contributed to the curtailment of solar energy, as many of the solar projects have been built in northern and western regions of China where there is a low demand for electricity and a lack of infrastructure to transfer energy towards China's main power grid.

How much solar energy did China install in 2017?

In the first nine months of 2017, China saw 43 GW of solar energy installed in the first nine months of the year and saw a total of 52.8 GW of solar energy installed for the entire year. 2017 is currently the year with the largest addition of solar energy capacity in China.

How much solar power does China have?

As of at least 2024, China has one third of the world's installed solar panel capacity. Most of China's solar power is generated within its western provinces and is transferred to other regions of the country.
