Distributed solar PV has been installed mainly in east and south China, where the country’s economy is most prosperous and demand for power is greatest. About 52 percent of capacity is in four provinces: Zhejiang, Shandong, Jiangsu and Anhui. There are four main reasons that distributed solar PV is growing faster than ever: 1. National Targets
Owing to China's escalating demand for renewable energy and carbon emissions reduction, and given its prominent position as one of the fastest-growing nations in photovoltaic (PV) development, a comprehensive assessment of the potential of both centralized and distributed photovoltaic systems in China is crucial.
Interestingly, these regions were among the top contributors to China’s distributed PV installations in recent years. According to Energy Administration data, in 2023, Henan province led the distributed PV addition rankings with 13.89GW, followed by Jiangsu with 12.17GW and Shandong with 10.13GW in distributed PV additions.
Distributed solar PV generated 13.7 terawatt-hours of electricity in 2017, enough to power all the households in Beijing for 7.5 months. The accumulated installed capacity of distributed solar PV now accounts for 27.1 percent of China’s total solar PV installation.
China has a strong share of distributed solar PV, with close to 225 GW out of 536 GW, reflecting a diverse and robust deployment and bringing affordable clean electricity alongside greater energy independence.
