China is taking significant measures to ensure stable electricity supply from renewable energy sources, particularly in the context of the “Great Power” initiative. As the country enhances its energy strategy, it aims to bolster the reliability of its electricity supply amid increasing demands.
Recent data from the National Energy Administration indicates that as of May 21, 2025, renewable energy sources have surpassed 50% of the country’s total energy generation capacity. This transition marks a pivotal moment for China, as renewable energy now stands as the primary source of electricity.
Specifically, the installed capacity of renewable energy reached 1.25 billion kilowatts, an increase of over 51% compared to previous years. The capacity of new energy power generation has also notably exceeded 100 million kilowatts, with a significant percentage of this capacity coming from solar and wind energy technologies.
Furthermore, projections for wind energy generation show that by the end of this year, China is expected to exceed 1.48 billion kilowatts of installed capacity, which will contribute substantially to the overall energy mix. The ongoing investments in renewable energy sources affirm China’s position as a leader in the global energy transition.
In response to the growing demand for electricity, the State Grid Corporation has launched a new system to better manage the integration of renewable energy into the existing grid. This system aims to facilitate the smooth distribution of renewable energy while maintaining grid stability.
On May 20, the National Energy Administration announced the implementation of a new regulatory framework designed to support large-scale renewable energy projects and enhance their integration into the national grid. This initiative is expected to streamline the process of connecting renewable energy sources to the grid, thereby ensuring a more robust energy supply network.
As part of these efforts, China plans to accelerate the construction of renewable energy projects, including wind and solar installations. The goal is to increase the renewable energy share in the country’s energy mix while addressing challenges related to energy stability and distribution.
In summary, China’s commitment to enhancing its renewable energy infrastructure is evident in its ambitious targets and strategic initiatives aimed at securing a reliable and sustainable energy future.
