34、nt,9/15/23;China NEA(1/26/24,2/28/24);PVTech(04/22/24).China installed 120 GWac of utility-scale PV in 2023,a 275%increase from 32 GWac installed in 2022.Reasons for the surge included declining module prices and increasing construction of renewable energy“megabases”gigawatt-scale wind and solar pro
35、jects sited in remote areas.Provincial Renewable Portfolio Standard(RPS)targets were another driver.For most provinces,the target non-hydro electricity share was raised 1.2 percentage points for 2023 and 1.7 percentage points for 2024,which has spurred measures promoting wind and solar deployment in
36、 some provinces.For example,in 2023 Yunnan closed some of its RPS gap by increasing renewable energy compensation rates and facilitating land approval and interconnection for utility-scale projects.The 87 GWac of distributed PV installed in 2023 was 74%higher than the 50 GWac installed in 2022.Decli
37、ning PV equipment prices and high power prices drove demand.The rapid deployment has exposed potential constraints including grid-interconnection capacity and increasing curtailment.China deployed 20 GWac of energy storage in 2023,reaching a cumulative 31 GWac and achieving its 30-GWac goal 2 years
38、early.The growth has primarily been driven by provincial mandates.As of January 2024,26 provinces mandated storage with PV projects,with an average storage capacity requirement equivalent to 12%of the PV capacity.In Q1 2024,China installed 46 GWac of new PVa 36%increase from Q1 2023.NREL|11NREL|11Eu
