Of the total global solar PV capacity, 35.45% is in China. Listed below are the five largest active solar PV power plants by capacity in China, according to GlobalData’s power plants database. GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of the global solar PV power segment.
As of data from April 2023, the largest PV solar plant in the country is the Gonghe Photovoltaic Project, located in the province of Qinghai, with a capacity of over 3,000 megawatts. Zhejiang, followed by Qinghai, were the provinces accounting for the largest capacity of operational solar power farms in 2022.
In 2021, China hit a breaking record of a solar power capacity with 54.9 gigawatts to its grid. According to China’s energy authority, the country managed to increase the capacity by 14% compared to the capacity made by the previous year, while gaining 31% of its total capacity additions over the year.
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.
A paid subscription is required for full access. In China, photovoltaic (PV) solar power capacity has grown enormously in the last decade. As of data from April 2023, the largest PV solar plant in the country is the Gonghe Photovoltaic Project, located in the province of Qinghai, with a capacity of over 3,000 megawatts.
Last year, China managed to hit a record-breaking number of residential solar power system installations due to the growing number of residential areas. According to the National Energy Administration, a total of 53 gigawatts of solar PV capacity was installed in 2021, which is close enough to the high record hit in 2017.
