According to data published by the National Energy Administration of China, the total installed capacity of renewable energy in China will reach 2.34 billion kilowatts by the end of 2025. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, China created the largest and fastest-growing renewable energy system in the world, with the share of installed capacity increasing from approximately 40% to 60%.

The total installed capacity of wind and solar energy exceeded that of thermal generation for the first time in history, increasing from 530 million kW in 2020 to 1.84 billion kW in 2025, surpassing 13 billion kW milestones.

The installed capacity of new energy storage facilities has exceeded 100 million kW for the first time, accounting for over 40% of the global total. "Giant chargers" make wind and solar energy generation more stable.

The annual trading volume of green certificates for renewable energy exceeded the combined total of all previous years, and the creation of mechanisms to stimulate green energy consumption accelerated.

This is driven by the ongoing optimization of the energy supply structure. During the 14th Five-Year Plan, China experienced a leap forward in the development of new energy. Large-scale wind and solar power plants in deserts became a new frontier, with installed capacity increasing to over 130 million kW. Furthermore, ultra-high-voltage transmission projects also facilitated the supply of green energy from remote regions. Currently, the share of green energy in China's total energy consumption is approaching 40%: out of every 10 kWh of electricity consumed, almost 4 kWh is green energy.

By building the world's largest and fastest-growing renewable energy system and establishing the world's largest and most comprehensive new energy industrial chain, China has made a significant contribution to the global low-carbon transition. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, China's wind and solar exports collectively helped other countries reduce carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 4.1 billion tons.
