China's State Council issued the 15th Five‑Year Carbon Peak Action Plan,
directing that new electricity demand be covered by newly added clean power and
setting capacity targets for 2030: wind and solar combined ≥2,800 GW,
conventional hydropower ~410 GW, and operating nuclear ~110 GW. The plan
mandates a multi‑source push—build Three‑North wind/PV bases, southwest
integrated hydro‑wind‑solar hubs, coastal nuclear and offshore wind capacity—and
accelerate distributed PV, dispersed wind, concentrated solar power, marine
energy and localized biomass/geothermal deployment. It also promotes development
of integrated wind‑solar‑hydrogen‑ammonia‑methanol bases and stronger
coordination of generation, grid planning and power consumption.
