According to data released by the National Energy Administration, the cumulative total installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation in China in 2020 was 253GW, a year-on-year increase of 23.8%. As photovoltaics gradually enter the era of parity and 14-five-year plan, the installed capacity will show a more rapid growth trend.
China deployed solar power plants and distributed PV systems with a total alternating-current (AC) power of 216.88 gigawatts (GW AC) in 2023, the National Energy Administration announced today. This corresponds to a direct-current (DC) solar module power of 260 GW, based on an average DC/AC factor of 1.2.
In 2020, China's newly installed grid-connected photovoltaic capacity reached 48.2GW, a year-on-year increase of 60.1%, of which the installed capacity of centralized photovoltaic power plants was 32.7GW, a year-on-year increase of 82.68%; the installed capacity of distributed photovoltaic power plants was 15.5GW, a year-on-year increase of 27.04%.
In 2020, the national solar photovoltaic power generation will continue to maintain double-digit growth, reaching 260.5 billion kWh, a year-on-year increase of 16.1%. In 2020, the average utilization hours of solar power generation equipment in China was 1160 hours, a year-on-year decrease of 125 hours.
As photovoltaics gradually enter the era of parity and 14-five-year plan, the installed capacity will show a more rapid growth trend. According to the incomplete statistics of CPIA, 16 enterprises in China's photovoltaic industry completed 18 financing projects in 2019, with a corresponding financing scale of 36.27 billion yuan.
In the first three quarters of 2020, China's newly added PV installed capacity was 18.7GW, higher than the level of the same period of last year. In the fourth quarter, it showed explosive growth, making the annual newly added installed capacity reach 48.2GW, including 32.68GW of centralized PV and 15.52GW of distributed PV.
