China Exceeds 700 Million KW in Renewable Energy

According to the news of Polaris Firepower Network News, it was learned from the National Energy Labor Conference that the clean energy industry grew steadily in 2018. National renewable energy installed capacity, hydroelectricity, wind energy and photovoltaic energy production exceeded 700 million kilowatts.

In 2018, the newly added clean energy area in the northern region is estimated to be approximately 1.55 billion square meters and the clean heating rate will reach to 46%. Efforts to expand clean energy production in China continue. The annual average income for photovoltaics is expected to be 3,000 yuan.

Zhang Jianhua, head of the National Energy Administration, said it is necessary to strongly encourage new developments in energy quality. In 2019, the coal consumption decreased to 58.5% and the average coal consumption of coal-fired power plants decreased by 1 gram. At the same time, until 2020, the problem of abandoning water and giving up the wind will be solved.
