Chen et al. developed a comprehensive solar resource assessment system based on the GIS + MCDM method in 2019. This system was applied to the assessment of the potential of PV power generation in the countries under the “Belt and Road” initiative. The results showed that the PV potential of China is 100.8 PWh.
The PV power generation potential of China is 131.942 PWh, which is approximately 23 times the electricity demand of China in 2015. The spatial distribution characteristics of PV power generation potential mainly showed a downward trend from northwest to southeast.
Clear spatial dislocations between PV power generation potential and population distribution and electricity demand. Accurate assessment of the photovoltaic (PV) power generation potential in China is important for the reduction of carbon emission intensity and the achievement of the goal of Carbon Neutral.
