Assuming a high power density of 30 MW km −2 for solar photovoltaic installations in China, an estimated 64,900 km 2 of land would be required, which is an area comparable to that of Georgia (He and Kammen, 2016). Securing sufficient land for solar installations poses significant challenges.
Solar energy, a rich renewable resource, encompasses two primary forms: photovoltaic power generation and solar thermal energy utilization. It plays a pivotal role in China''s strategic goal of reducing the fossil energy utilization rate to 20% by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2060. 6 Photovoltaic power generation converts solar energy into …
To mitigate the issue of land scarcity, China has experimented with deploying photovoltaic installations in deserts, on abandoned coal mines, in inland and coastal waters, and on agricultural land (Li et al., 2024).However, installations in abandoned coal mines and water bodies face unstable foundations, leading to elevated operational and management costs (Lin …
In 2011, China owned the largest solar power plant in the world at the time, the Huanghe Hydropower Golmud Solar Park, which had a photovoltaic capacity of 200 MW. In 2018, it held the record again with the Tengger Desert Solar Park with its photovoltaic capacity of 1.5 GW.
The future land requirements of solar energy obtained for each scenario and region can be put in perspective compared, for example, to the current level of built-up area and agricultural cropland.
Initially, China prioritized wind power for renewable energy development due to its well-established technology. However, the Key Points of New Energy and Renewable Energy Industry Development Planning 2000–2015, published in 2000, marked the beginning of China''s interest in solar photovoltaic technology [27]. In the early stages, critical ...

Detailed spatial-temporal dynamics and major land cover conversion of photovoltaic solar power plants in Gansu. Abstract . Numbers and sizes of photovoltaic solar power plants have grown unprecedentedly over the last few years in China, which aims to achieve a carbon emission peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060. Thus, timely and accurate …
As of the end of 2022, China has amassed an impressive 390 million kW of installed PV capacity, occupying approximately 0.8 million km2 of land [3]. With the continuous growth in the number and scale of installed PV power stations in China, the demand for land dedicated to PV is also on the rise [4].
Photovoltaic (PV) solar energy is considered as a promising solution to mitigate the environmental costs associated with the use of fossil fuels. However, the environmental impacts of constructing and operating PV solar energy remain unclear. This study assesses the environmental consequences of PV construction and operation by examining changes in …
With the world''s highest cumulative and fastest built PV capacity, China needs to assess the environmental and social impacts of these established PV power plants. However, a comprehensive map regarding the PV power plants'' locations …
China''s goal to achieve carbon (C) neutrality by 2060 requires scaling up photovoltaic (PV) and wind power from 1 to 10–15 PWh year−1 (refs. 1–5). Following the historical rates of ...

OverviewHistorySolar resourcesSolar photovoltaicsConcentrated solar powerSolar water heatingEffects on the global solar power industryGovernment incentives
China is the largest market in the world for both photovoltaics and solar thermal energy. China''s photovoltaic industry began by making panels for satellites, and transitioned to the manufacture of domestic panels in the late 1990s. After substantial government incentives were introduced in 2011, China''s solar power market grew dramatically: the country became the world''s leading installer of photovoltaics
By comparing the spatial and temporal evolution, geographical characteristics, and low-carbon reduction of photovoltaic power installation in China''s provinces and regions, this study provides quantitative supports and feasible suggestions for the achievement of low-carbon targets and sustainable development of China''s photovoltaic industry.
