Effective August 1, 2021, China will stop subsidizing new solar farm projects, distributed solar projects for commercial users, and onshore wind farms. For years, China had been generous towards wind and solar projects.
China vows to speed up the construction of the second batch of massive wind and solar power projects in the Gobi Desert and other arid regions, according to a package of policy measures that aim to stabilize the economy announced by the State Council recently.
The motivation behind the cut was that China wanted to ensure the local solar industry was economically sustainable over the long term. However, more recently, China’s finance ministry committed to granting 57 percent more subsidies to solar power projects this year, but cut subsidies for wind power.
The announcement of subsidy phase-out led to a larger energy “rebound effect”. They adjusted electricity usage patterns to maximize revenue from solar electricity. With the impending post-subsidy era, the Chinese government has initiated significant reductions in household photovoltaic (PV) subsidies.
China's largest environmental desert control photovoltaic (PV) project in the Kubuqi desert, North China's Inner Mongolia, has connected to the grid. The 100,000-mu (6,666 hectares) project is providing clean energy for China's power grid while helping improve the environment of the desert, showing China's latest efforts at eco-development.
An analyst said China's plan to further optimize its energy mix by building massive wind and solar power facilities in the country's Gobi and other desert areas will facilitate the country's ambition of reaching more than 1,200 GW of installed solar and wind capacity by 2030.
