Rooftop solar and containers in China

4 FAQs about [Rooftop solar and containers in China]

Can rooftop solar be deployed in China?

This study moves beyond technical estimates to assess the deployable rooftop solar potential across 367 Chinese cities, factoring in real-world constraints. The findings offer actionable insights to guide strategic deployment and support China’s ambitious solar energy goals.

How big is China''s rooftop solar system?

This was China’s largest- ever first-quarter addition. Rooftop solar systems contributed around 36 GW, which is 60% of the total capacity added. This increase in rooftop installations follows new policy guidelines announced in October 2024 by the National Energy Administration (NEA). These guidelines took effect in May 2025.

Does China have rooftop solar potential?

Recent research unveils a nuanced and realistic picture of rooftop solar potential across Chinese cities, transcending traditional technical or economic estimations by embracing real-world consumption patterns and regulatory frameworks.

Why has rooftop PV soared in China?

Rooftop PV accounted for 60%, or 36 GW, of that total, marking the largest quarterly capacity addition for distributed PV in China’s history. The surge was largely driven by the urgency to meet policy deadlines set by the National Energy Administration’s (NEA) new guidelines, which were released in October last year and put into effect this May.
