人民日报丨我国光伏发电装机突破10亿千瓦 火电装机占比降至约40%

Core Viewpoint - The article highlights significant growth in China's power generation capacity, particularly in solar energy, and a shift in the energy mix towards cleaner sources, indicating a robust development in the renewable energy sector and a decline in coal-fired power generation [1][2]. Group 1: Solar Power Development - As of the end of May, China's cumulative installed solar power capacity reached 1.08 billion kilowatts, marking a historic breakthrough with a year-on-year growth of 57% [1]. - The solar power capacity now accounts for approximately 30% of the total installed power generation capacity in China, equivalent to about 48 Three Gorges Dam installations, and nearly half of the global solar power capacity [1]. - The solar industry in China comprises over 1 million enterprises, generating an annual output value exceeding 1 trillion yuan, showcasing a complete and internationally competitive solar industry chain [1]. Group 2: Grid Investment and Coal Power Decline - National grid engineering investment reached 204 billion yuan in the first five months of the year, reflecting a year-on-year increase of 19.8% [2]. - The East-to-Shandong ±800 kV UHVDC project can deliver electricity equivalent to the annual consumption of over 10 million households, with half of it being green energy [2]. - As of the end of May, coal-fired power generation capacity fell to approximately 40% of the total installed capacity, indicating a continued decline in reliance on coal [2]. - The National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration have initiated a new generation of coal power upgrade plan, aiming for a 10%-20% reduction in carbon emissions per kilowatt-hour by 2024 for new pilot demonstration units [2].
