China Renewable Energy Sector Report 2021-2022

Over the past decade, China has been heavily investing in developing its renewable energy (RE) resources as part of the government's pledge to reduce its carbon footprint and meet more of its rapidly electricity needs with clean energy. China’s impressive drive into RE has made it the world’s largest investor in clean energy with USD 818bn invested in new capacity in the 2010-2019 period. China has the world’s largest RE installed capacity, which at 905.1 GW in 2020 accounted for 41.1% of the country's power capacity. Still, the country continues to rely on thermal power sources to generate most of its electricity. Over the past few years, growth in the sector has been mainly driven by investments in wind and solar power. The growth in solar energy has been supported by the country's position as a major producer and supplier of solar PV and wind components. ​
