Solar power is vital for China''s future energy pathways to achieve the goal of 2060 carbon neutrality. Previous studies have suggested that China''s solar energy resource potential surpass the projected nationwide power demand in 2060, yet the uncertainty quantification and cost competitiveness of such resource potential are less studied.

As the world''s largest carbon emitter, China has pledged to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. An essential pathway to the carbon neutrality goal is to promote the replacement of coal-fired power generation with low or zero-carbon energy sources [1], [2].Solar power, especially solar photovoltaic (PV), will be one of the main energy sources in the future …
China''s capacity for generating wind and solar power rose drastically during the January-April period, as the country stepped up efforts to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060 with more active new energy development goals and promote the large-scale and high-quality development of clean energy, said National Energy Administration in a press release on …

In this paper, China''s PV power generation will reach grid parity over the next 10–30 years, but before grid parity, PV power generation will experience declining costs and …
China has already made major commitments to transitioning its energy systems towards renewables, especially power generation from solar, wind and hydro sources. However, there are many unknowns about the future of solar energy in China, including its cost, technical feasibility and grid compatibility in the coming decades. Recent projections of ...
Therefore, if the energy storage system, power transmission, and other auxiliary facilities can balance the difference between PV power generation and consumption demand, solar PV power alone can fully meet China''s electricity demand in the future, but the corresponding cost will be very high. 1

China''s power transition requires vast investments and faces significant cost uncertainties. Hu et al. reveal these uncertainties through an estimation framework that considers uncertainties on both the future power generation mix and power technology costs. The quantified cost uncertainty is essential to align the transition with economic and policy realities.

There was no disruption to the trend in continued cost declines for solar and wind power, either. In 2020, the global weighted-average levelised cost of electricity (LCOE) from new capacity additions of onshore wind declined by 13%, compared to 2019. Over the same period, the LCOE of offshore wind fell by 9% and that of utility-scale solar photovoltaics (PV) by 7% (Figure S.1). …
When planning for green transformation of the power system, cost is usually the primary consideration. In previous studies, LCOE was often applied to quantify the internal electricity costs of renewables, including measuring the upfront cost expenditures of PV installation [12], estimating operation and maintenance costs [13], and comparing the …
Similar examples have also been found in China. In 2008, a 220 kW rooftop solar power generation in Beijing South Station was operated [11, 12].
