China Builds World's Largest Solar Farm on Tibetan Plateau

  • Chinese officials showcased last month a solar farm on the Tibetan plateau covering 610 square kilometers with over 7 million panels powering 5 million households.
  • This buildout follows China's rapid solar installation pace, outpacing global competitors and aligning with its goal to peak carbon emissions before 2030.
  • A study released this August found China's carbon emissions fell 1% in the first half of 2025 amid a 3.7% growth in electricity demand, driven by solar, wind, and nuclear.
  • Experts Li Shuo and Lauri Myllyvirta called this emission plateau a global turning point but warned coal dependency and rigid grid management require systemic reforms.
  • While China aims for carbon neutrality by 2060 needing 3% annual emission cuts, experts stress accelerating structural changes remain critical to meet climate goals.
