[pdf] Data and information about Solar power plants and their location plotted on an interactive map of China. . Wind and solar surpassed a quarter of China's electricity generation for the first time in April 2025. China is the largest market in the world for both photovoltaics (PV) and solar thermal energy. 60 MW phase IV under construction. Within a group of 1,000 MW of co-located plants Up to 2,000 MW when complete. Following phases with 550 MW planned. Rapid solar capacity expansion overwhelms the grid, PV manufacturers compete for market shares, and then large target markets slap import tariffs on Chinese PV products, taking off their competitive edge.
