China needs 4 TW of solar, 1 TW storage by 2060

will need nearly 6 terawatts of solar and wind power to achieve its goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2060

would be double China’s total energy generation capacity now, and more than five times the current capacity in the United States

will need to have 2TW of wind power capacity and 3.9TW of solar installed

required deployment rates in mid-century are close to what has been reported for 2023, though there will still be challenges to sustain that over time

1,000 gigawatts of energy storage will also be needed to provide reserve energy during peak demand, mostly for solar

model was created with the expectation that China would continue to “exploit” its existing hydropower resources, and that just over 200GW of coastal nuclear power would be added.
