China Achieves 1,200 GW Renewable Energy Target Six Years Early
Aug 23, 2024, 04:05 AM
China has achieved a significant milestone in its clean energy development, reaching its target of 1,200 gigawatts (GW) of wind and solar generating capacity six years ahead of schedule. This target was initially set by President Xi Jinping in December 2020, with a goal to reach it by 2030. The rapid progress underscores China's commitment to transitioning to green energy and reducing reliance on coal. The achievement highlights China's position as a leader in renewable energy, supported by substantial investments in grid infrastructure to manage the intermittent nature of wind and solar power. Additionally, China has issued new guidelines on green power trading, further supporting its green transition efforts.
