China’s solar photovoltaic market is likely to be the most critical battlefield for the sate-owned power developers in the coming five years.
China unleashed the full might of its solar energy industry last year. It installed more solar panels than the United States has in its history. It cut the wholesale price of panels it sells by nearly half. And its exports of fully assembled solar panels climbed 38 percent while its exports of key components almost doubled.
Since 2018, solar has been more dominant in China’s power investment, as incremental capacity statistics indicate: 2020H1: China added 11.52GW new solar capacity (7.08GW mounted and 4.43 distributed); while the nation only installed 6.82GW additional wind units. Solar is almost double the size of incremental wind.
China has at least 80% of the global market share in solar manufacturing capacity, making Chinese exports an important dataset for tracking the clean energy transition. In the first half of 2023, exports of solar panels from China grew by 34%, with 114 GW shipped worldwide, compared to 85 GW in the same period last year.

China added almost twice as much utility-scale solar and wind power capacity in 2023 than in any other year. By the first quarter of 2024, China’s total utility-scale solar and wind capacity reached 758 GW, though data from China Electricity Council put the total capacity, including distributed solar, at 1,120 GW.
