China as the leading country for renewable energy has seen robust growth in its installed capacity in the first half (H1) of 2023 amid the country's efforts to advance its green transition, according to the National Energy Administration (NEA).
By the end of June, the country's installed capacity of renewable energy reached about 1.32 billion kilowatts, an 18.2 percent increase compared with the same period last year, said the NEA.
In breakdown, the installed capacity of wind power expanded 13.7 percent year on year to 390 million kilowatts, while that of solar power stood at about 470 million kilowatts, representing a yearly increase of 39.8 percent.
The country's installed power generation capacity totaled about 2.71 billion kilowatts, rising 10.8 percent year on year, the NEA said.
China has enhanced its renewable energy investment over the years as part of its pursuit of green development.
In the first six months of 2023, the total investment of China's major power companies in solar energy soared 113.6 percent year on year to 134.9 billion yuan ($18.88 billion), NEA's data showed.
