6 FAQs about [China s Large-scale Rooftop Solar Power Generation]

Why is China pursuing a photovoltaic era?

China’s pursuit of photovoltaic (PV) power, particularly rooftop installations, addresses energy and ecological challenges, aiming to reduce basic energy consumption by 50% by 2030. The northwest region, with its solar potential, is a focal point for distributed PV growth, which has already exceeded 50% of the energy mix by 2021.

Can rooftop photovoltaics help China achieve a carbon peak?

2030 is a critical milestone for China in achieving carbon peak, and large-scale deployment of rooftop photovoltaics is one of the key measures to support this goal in response to national planning and design. Hence, this study selects the summer of 2030 as the simulated period .

Can rooftop PV help achieve China's Energy and climate goals?

The research underscores the significant role of rooftop PV in achieving China’s energy and climate goals in its northwestern urban centers. In China, more than 75% of electricity is still generated using "dirty" coal, resulting in substantial emissions of NO x, CO 2, and SO 2 into the environment.

Can rooftop solar power grow in the northwestern region?

The northwest region, with its solar potential, is a focal point for distributed PV growth, which has already exceeded 50% of the energy mix by 2021. This study assesses the rooftop PV potential in five northwestern capitals, finding favorable conditions such as ample space, dense populations, and high sunlight exposure.

What is the potential of rooftop PV in Guangzhou?

A novel systematic method for assessing the potential of urban rooftop PV is proposed. Residential areas contribute 50% of the total rooftop PV potential in Guangzhou, China. The rooftop PV potential in Guangzhou reaches 44.06–72.12 billion kWh per year. Rooftop PV reduces carbon emissions in the power sector in Guangzhou by 72.12–100%.

Why is solar energy important for China's rspv industry?

As China's energy regime is undergoing a transition to a more appropriate energy mix, solar energy will play a crucial role in the future. Currently, the market problem is considered the main obstacle hindering the development of the RSPV industry in China (Kyere et al., 2024; Liu & Shiroyama, 2013).
