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.
The main findings of this study are five. First, results show that China can obtain 12,900–15,000 TWh/yr from wind energy resources and 3100–5200 TWh/yr from solar. The upper bound of electricity generation potential from both wind and solar resources is three times the demand in 2019, and one-and-a-half times the demand expected for 2050.
In terms of solar energy, there are more than 50,000 km2 where the solar resource has a capacity factor exceeding 0.15. This accounts for over 0.5% of China's land area. More than half of this land is located in Northwest China, followed by North China and Northeast China.
China's wind and solar can provide 1.5 times its 2050 expected electricity demand. There are disparities in renewable development potential across China's regions. Wind and solar energy have different but complementary seasonal patterns. Wind exhibits high seasonal variability while solar exhibits high intra-day variability.
China's newly installed photovoltaic capacity has ranked first in the world in recent years. Timely and accurate monitoring of the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of solar power plants is essential to optimize China's renewable energy power distribution and achieve carbon reduction targets.
