The market potential m of solar PV power in China reaches 1357 GW. This is higher than the results in the early studies, which predicted that the potential cumulative installed capacity of solar PV power will reach 287.68 GW in 2050.
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.
New and cumulative installed capacities of China's solar PV power from 2000 to 2017. In order to effectively coordinate the scale and speed of the solar PV installation with the economic development, China has occasionally set and adjusted the development targets for solar PV power.
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.
According to the national development strategy, China will develop solar photovoltaic power generation vigorously. Large-scale development of solar photovoltaic requires a lot of financial support, thus, how to achieve development goals with minimum cost is a meaningful study and can provide practical significance for policy studies.
Most of China's solar power is generated within its western provinces and is transferred to other regions of the country. 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.
