Operation of

renewable energy grid in 2025 In 2025, the National Energy Administration, guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, In-depth study and implementation of the spirit of the 20th and 20th Plenary sessions of the CPC, anchoring the goal of carbon peak and carbon neutralization, in-depth implementation of the new energy security strategy of "four revolutions and one cooperation", and promoting the construction of the world's largest and fastest growing renewable energy system. The non-fossil energy consumption target of the "14th Five-Year Plan" was overfulfilled. In order to accelerate the construction of ", the installed capacity of renewable energy has reached a new high, and the proportion of the scale has steadily increased. The installed capacity of renewable energy accounted for more than 60%, of which the newly installed capacity of wind power and solar power exceeded 4. In 2025, the newly installed capacity of renewable energy power in China increased 4. Among them, hydropower increased 12.15 million kilowatts, wind power increased 120 million kilowatts, and solar power increased 3. The total installed capacity of renewable energy in China reached 23. Among them, the installed capacity of hydropower was 450 million kilowatts, the installed capacity of wind power was 640 million kilowatts, the installed capacity of solar power was 1.2 billion kilowatts, and the installed capacity of biomass power was 0.

In 2025, the national hydropower generation 1.

(2) Wind power construction and operation. In 2025, the installed capacity of wind power in China increased by 120 million kilowatts, an increase of 51% over the same period last year, of which onshore wind power increased 1. From the perspective of the distribution of newly installed capacity, the "Three North" region accounted for 79% of the newly installed capacity in China.

As of December 2025, the cumulative grid-connected capacity of wind power in China reached 640 million kilowatts, an increase of 23% over the same period last year, including 590 million kilowatts of onshore wind power and 0

kilowatts of offshore wind power. 1.

(III) Construction and operation of photovoltaic power generation. In 2025, the installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation in China increased by 317 million kilowatts, an increase of 14% over the previous year, including 164 million kilowatts of centralized photovoltaic power generation and 1.

By December 2025, the installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation in China reached 1.2 billion kilowatts, an increase of 35% over the previous year. Among them, centralized photovoltaic is 670 million kilowatts, distributed photovoltaic is 5.

2025, and national photovoltaic power generation is 1.

(4) Construction and operation of biomass power generation. In 2025, the installed capacity of biomass power generation in China increased by 1.51 million kilowatts. By December 2025, the installed capacity of biomass power generation in China had reached 47.43 million kilowatts, an increase of 3% over the same period last year. Biomass generated 224 billion 700 million kwh, an increase of 7% over the same period.

(5) Construction and operation of photothermal power generation. In 2025, the installed capacity of solar thermal power generation in China increased by 940,000 kilowatts, an increase of 203% over the same period last year. By December 2025, the installed capacity of solar thermal power generation in China had reached 1.82 million kilowatts, an increase of 107% over the same period last year. Photothermal power generation was 1.6 billion kWh, an increase of 32% over the same period.
