As of data from April 2023, the largest PV solar plant in the country is the Gonghe Photovoltaic Project, located in the province of Qinghai, with a capacity of over 3,000 megawatts. Zhejiang, followed by Qinghai, were the provinces accounting for the largest capacity of operational solar power farms in 2022.
Of the total global solar PV capacity, 35.45% is in China. Listed below are the five largest active solar PV power plants by capacity in China, according to GlobalData’s power plants database. GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of the global solar PV power segment.
Argentina Cauchari Jujuy Solar PV Project (315 MW) is the world's highest large-scale photovoltaic power station. During the first Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation, under the witness of the heads of both China and Argentina, a cooperation document of the Cauchari Solar PV Project was signed. 7.
China’s solar capacity installed this year alone would equate to more than the total solar power capacity installed across the US, double that of Germany, and over five times the total installed solar power of Australia. Viet Nam has also seen a rapid solar expansion between 2019 and 2020, with a 234% increase in solar capacity in a single year.
