Title: Latest Report: China Continues to Lead in Renewable Energy Development
On October 7, 2025, the international media reported that China has consistently progressed in renewable energy development. According to a recent report released by Ember, a global energy think tank, it was highlighted that in the first half of 2025, China’s solar and wind energy capacity exceeded that of any other country.
The report indicates that China’s renewable energy capacity has increased significantly, with solar power generation rising by 55% and wind power output growing by 82% compared to the previous year. In the first half of 2025, China’s solar energy generation was up by 43%, achieving a growth rate higher than the 31% growth of the global average. This growth has resulted in more than 85% of China’s electricity being generated from renewable sources.
Solar energy accounted for a greater proportion of the energy mix, increasing by 3% compared to the previous year. Additionally, the wind power generation capacity in China surged by 16% in the first half of the year, marking a significant contribution to the national energy grid.
In the realm of carbon energy, coal power generation also saw an increase of 11%, but with a much lower contribution rate compared to renewables, standing at over 70%. By the first half of 2025, China’s solar and wind energy generation is expected to meet the growing electricity demand, which will help to keep energy prices stable.
Furthermore, the report mentions that by 2025, China is projected to fulfill its electricity needs through renewable sources, thus reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Overall, the report illustrates a positive trend in China’s energy transition towards a sustainable future.
