6 FAQs about [Abandoning solar power]

Is the abandonment of wind and solar power still a problem?

The most direct manifestation is that the phenomenon of abandoning wind and solar power in some areas is still more serious. In 2020, the amount of wind and solar power abandoned in China reached 16.6 and 5.26 billion kWh, respectively.

How much wind and solar power is abandoned in China?

Why do people abandon wind and solar?

The reasons for abandoning wind and solar are different in different regions. In north-west China, the main reason for abandoning solar is insufficient external transmission channels, while in north-east China, the main reason for abandoning wind and solar is insufficient peak regulation ability.

Is there a lack of local-use capacity of wind and solar power?

The lack of local-use capacity of wind and solar power is a common problem nationwide, as well as in the four typical provinces. Although the total power consumption effect plays a facilitating role, the ability to consume renewable electricity is still insufficient.

Why are there so few facilities for recycling solar panels?

The reason there are so few facilities for recycling solar panels is because there has not been much waste to process and reuse until recently. The first generation of domestic solar panels is only now coming to the end of its usable life. With those units now approaching retirement, experts say urgent action is needed.

Is self-use a restraining role in wind and solar power generation?

However, the self-use ability was insufficient, as it played a restraining role (except in 2018). This demonstrates that the proportion of self-used wind and solar power out of the total power generation decreased year by year from 2015 to 2017 (from 73.3% in 2015 to 54.3% in 2017, after which it increased to 56.8% in 2018).
