Nation on track to beat green energy goals

China Daily  

A view of the wind turbines installed on Nanpeng Island, Guangdong province. Report: Pace of installation on solar, wind sectors may help China hit target early China may beat its 2030 target for solar and wind energy development five years ahead of schedule, a report from an independent nonprofit organization in the United States has found, as China celebrates its National Low-Carbon Day on Wednesday. If these prospective facilities — nearly all of which are included in the 2021-25 five-year plans of different regions — are built and commissioned, China is expected to roughly double its current installed operating capacities for solar and wind energy, it said, adding that this will help the country realize its 2030 target for the two types of renewable energy by 2025. In desert areas in Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, Mulei Kazak autonomous county in the region, and Delingha city in Qinghai province, solar and wind energy generation facilities with a total installed capacity of nearly 3.1 million kilowatts are up and running. "The installed capacity for renewable energy across the country grew by 47.4 million kilowatts in the first quarter this year, increasing by 86.5 percent year-on-year and representing 80.3 percent of the total new installed capacity," Wang Dapeng, deputy head of new energy and renewable energy department at the National Energy Administration, said at a news conference in late April.
