14th Five-Year Plan Solar Thermal Power Generation

How will the 14th five-year plan affect energy planning?

At the same time, we will well connect energy planning at national and provincial levels during the 14th Five-Year Plan period and integrate those targets into the plan such as responsibilities relating to power consumption, energy-saving, and emissions reduction to peak carbon emissions.

What are the 14fyp energy and climate goals?

The first three of these binding energy and climate goals are considered “green ecology” targets, while the fourth, on energy production, is categorised as security-related. The 14FYP outline proposes to increase the share of non-fossil energy in total energy consumption to around 20% by 2025, up from 15.8% in 2020.

How has China accelerated the transition to green energy?

The wide use of renewable energy in the Chinese market has brought down the cost of renewable energy at a faster speed and thus further driven renewable energy development and utilization in other countries. In this way, the world's transition to green energy has accelerated.

How big is China's solar power generation capacity?

According to the National Energy Administration (NEA), China had 204.7 GW in installed solar PV power generation capacity at the end of 2019, a significant increase on the 0.02 GW 10 years earlier; similarly, the total installed capacity of wind power generation increased from 16.1 GW in 2009 to 210.1 GW in 2019.

Will China start a 100-gigawatt solar power plant in the desert?

China launched its first phase comprising 100-gigawatt total wind and solar power capacity in the desert areas by the end of 2021, which covers 19 provinces nationwide, as the country has been promoting the adjustment of its industrial and energy structures.

Are China's power generation companies accelerating renewable capacity expansion?

China’s power generation companies have carried out a phenomenal renewable capacity expansion in the past 2019 and 2020. China’s renewable developers—most of which are state-owned companies—rushed to connect their projects in the pipeline, as subsidy sunset for most renewable projects from 2021 onward.
