Rooftop solar PV installations in China may surge in the next three years as the country goes through a green energy transition and plans to make renewable energy a key cornerstone in the country's path to a greener economy, a recent research report said.
The growth of Residential rooftop solar (RRS) in some western countries has predominantly been driven by individual or market behaviour and has been extensively studied. However, the development landscape of RRS in China differs, and its driving mechanisms remain unclear.
The country's rapid development of rooftop solar capacity is also driven by government incentives. Newly added annual installed capacity for solar stations has been around 30 GW on average over the past few years, China New Energy Investment and Financing Alliance said.
Rooftop installations in China increased to 27.3 gigawatts in 2021 from 19.4 GW in 2017, and the growth should keep rising for the rooftop solar market, a Rystad Energy analysis piece said. Before 2017, rooftop solar was almost non-existent, with only 4 GW of installed capacity in 2016.
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.
The National Development and Reform Commission said earlier in March the country should accelerate the development of rooftop solar projects and ensure half of the newly built public institutions will be covered by rooftop solar panels in 2025.

Residential rooftop solar (RRS) for electricity generation is essential in the new power system and vital during the low-carbon green energy transformation, which is being adopted globally (Moore and Bullard, 2021). In recent years, China''s RRS has been expanding rapidly, with the annual growth rate ranking first in the world. However, RRS ...
2 · This is mainly driven by lower module prices, a robust rooftop PV market and the commissioning of the country''s energy megabases, which aim to develop large-scale wind and solar installations mainly in desert areas, it said. Accelerated grid construction across the nation, which allows solar energy to be transmitted to demand centers further afield, has also helped …
