6 FAQs about [Solar power generation in rural areas of Northwest China]

Where is solar power generated in China?

Fig. 2. Spatial distribution of annual theoretical power generation of China in 2015. The results of theoretical PV power generation show that the high-value areas are mainly concentrated in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, followed by Northwest China and Yunnan, where are rich in solar radiation resources.

Does northwest China have a solar and wind potential?

Geographic and techno-economic quantification of Northwest China's solar and wind potential from a regional provincial perspective. With RPS, the energy potential of the Northwest China is capable of facilitating the achievement of SDG7 and carbon neutrality vision.

What is the potential of solar power generation in China?

The GIS + MCDM method was employed by Chen et al. (2023) to assess the potential of solar power generation in China, revealing a capacity of 100.8PWh. The technical potential of wind energy is also being considered.

Why is China promoting photovoltaic system in rural areas?

Based on the above reasons, the Chinese government plans to vigorously promote the construction of photovoltaic system in rural areas, which has been included in the 14 th Five-Year Plan of renewable energy development. In the foreseeable future, rural photovoltaic system in China will achieve rapid and sustainable growth. Figure 4.
