en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 25, the National Energy Administration released1-5-month national power statistics.

As of5the end ofMay, the national cumulative installed power generation capacity40.1 billion kilowatts, a year-on-year increase of11.0%. Among them, solar power installed capacity12.6 billion kilowatts, a year-on-year increase of16.3%;wind power installed capacity6.6 billion kilowatts, a year-on-year increase of17.0%.

1-5-month, the national average utilization hours of power generation equipment1155 hours, a decrease of95 hours compared to the same period last year.

As of the end of May 2026, the national installed power generation capacity reached 40.1 billion kilowatts.Exceeding the combined installed power generation capacity of the United States, the European Union, India, Japan, and Russia.2010 to2025, China's installed power generation capacity grew at an average annual rate of9.7%, higher than the United States (1.7%),the European Union (3.2%), India (7.1%), Japan (2.9%), and Russia (1.2%).

From the perspective of installed structure, non-fossil energy installed capacity is growing rapidly, becoming the absolute mainstay of the increase.The share of coal-fired power installed capacity dropped from2010's61% to2026's5May's32%; the share of non-fossil energy installed capacity rose from2010's25% to2026's62%;2010 since, the share of new non-fossil energy installed capacity in total new installed capacity reached74%; the share of renewable energy installed capacity rose from2010's24% to2026's61%;2010 since, the share of new renewable energy installed capacity in total new installed capacity reached73%. Among them, the share of new wind and solar installed capacity in total new installed capacity reached21% and43%, respectively.

From the perspective of growth rate,the time required for China's installed power generation capacity to add each additional 1 billion kilowatts is continuously shortening.In 2011, China's installed power generation capacityexceeded10 billion kilowatts (10.6 billion kilowatts), in 201920 billion kilowatts (20.1 billion kilowatts), in April 202430 billion kilowatts (30.1 billion kilowatts), and at the end of May 202640 billion kilowatts, the time required for each additional10 billion kilowatts shortened from8 years and5 years to about2 years.
