What is the potential of solar power generation in China?

Chen et al. developed a comprehensive solar resource assessment system based on the GIS + MCDM method in 2019. This system was applied to the assessment of the potential of PV power generation in the countries under the “Belt and Road” initiative. The results showed that the PV potential of China is 100.8 PWh.

How much solar energy will China have by 2021?

However, according to the National Energy Administration of China, the total proportion of solar and wind energy in the energy structure of China will only reach 11% by 2021, indicating that the exploitation of solar energy resources in China should be developed in future works.

Will photovoltaic & energy storage become industrialized in China?

According to the reports, “Photovoltaic + Energy Storage” has become a global development trend and is one of the hottest development paths for the industry in the future. However, the energy storage industry in China has not yet formed industrialization.

Where is solar power generated in China?

Fig. 2. Spatial distribution of annual theoretical power generation of China in 2015. The results of theoretical PV power generation show that the high-value areas are mainly concentrated in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, followed by Northwest China and Yunnan, where are rich in solar radiation resources.
