The photovoltaic panel areas in Hebei, Jiangsu, and Shandong were relatively large (132.84 km 2, 98.35 km 2, and 93.63 km 2), and accounted for about 63.71% of total photovoltaic panel area in the coastal regions. Moreover, these three provinces are the regions with the highest grid-connected capacity.
The tool shows China ground mounted solar facilities occupied a surface of 2,467.7 km2 at the end of December 2020. Scientists led by the China Agricultural University have created a national-scale map and dataset of ground-mounted PV power stations in China.
The total area of photovoltaic panels in China’s coastal regions in 2021 was about 510.78 km 2, and the average PV panel density reached 378.77 m 2 per km 2. The photovoltaic panel area in the different regions, and the cumulative grid-connected capacity in 2021 are shown in Figure 6 d.
A total of 676 counties in China are currently serving as pilots, and 100 % of the available roofs of their public buildings, such as party and government offices, institutions, public schools, and public hospitals, must be installed with PV .
According to the photovoltaic power installation distribution, the spatial-temporal characteristics of the photovoltaic power installation in China can be depicted. The photovoltaic power development stages could be classified into Full operation, Partial operation, Announced construction, Permitted construction, and Under construction.
China's newly installed photovoltaic capacity has ranked first in the world in recent years. Timely and accurate monitoring of the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of solar power plants is essential to optimize China's renewable energy power distribution and achieve carbon reduction targets.
