Development of distributed solar photovoltaics mainly benefited from the incentive policies in China. Currently the cost of PV power generation is still higher than traditional energy sources. China's PV industry is incapable of competing in the energy market without policy intervention.
Distributed solar PV generated 13.7 terawatt-hours of electricity in 2017, enough to power all the households in Beijing for 7.5 months. The accumulated installed capacity of distributed solar PV now accounts for 27.1 percent of China’s total solar PV installation.
Owing to China's escalating demand for renewable energy and carbon emissions reduction, and given its prominent position as one of the fastest-growing nations in photovoltaic (PV) development, a comprehensive assessment of the potential of both centralized and distributed photovoltaic systems in China is crucial.
China is leading that growth: it ranks first since 2015 in both installed capacity and power generation. By 2017, China had 130 gigawatts of solar PV to the grid—nearly six times the capacity of the Three Gorges hydroelectric plant, the largest in the world. Furthermore, the nation achieved its 2020 goal for solar two years ahead of schedule.
At present, China's distributed PV is still in its infancy. With the improvement of solar power technology, the cost of solar power will be reduced continuously. Based on the learning curve of PV module prices, it can forecast that the price of PV modules will be 1.45 $/W by 2015 and 1.00 $/W by 2020 .
China has a strong share of distributed solar PV, with close to 225 GW out of 536 GW, reflecting a diverse and robust deployment and bringing affordable clean electricity alongside greater energy independence.
