and GIZ analysis, March 2024The development of wind power and solar PV in China is mainly driven by policies. The most important top-level policy documents in the field of renewable energy are the "14th Five-Year Plan for Modern Energy System" and the "14th Five-Year
Despite China government has officially announced to prescribe renewable energy as the dominant source of power generation in the future (CFEAC, 2021), the potential contributions from wind and solar remain unclear.
Wind and solar now account for 37% of the total power capacity in the country, an 8% increase from 2022, and widely expected to surpass coal capacity, which is 39% of the total right now, in 2024. Cumulative annual utility-scale solar & wind power capacity in China, in gigawatts (GW)
