China installed over 430 GW of renewables in 2025, reaching a total installed renewable capacity of over 2.34 TW by the end of the year. The country aims to achieve peak emissions by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060; emissions may have already peaked in 2024, six years ahead of the 2030 goal. Although China currently has the world's largest installed capacity of hydro, solar and wind power, its energy needs are so large that fossil fuels still provide the majority of power. In 2020, as a part of the Central Committee's fourteenth five-year plan, a target of 20% total energy production from non-fossil fuel sources by 2025 was set. By the end of 2023, renewables accounted for 51.9% of China's installed power generation capacity, and renewable energy capacity is growing faster than the country's fossil fuels and nuclear power capacity. Electricity generation from renewable energy was about 35% of total electricity...
