Most people don’t realize how much solar power China has installed.
Enough to power half of America!
Jesse Peltan@JessePeltan· May 8, 2025If China's 888 GW of installed solar operated at U.S. capacity factors, it would generate 44% of U.S. electricity.
We have a massive irradiance advantage, especially compared to Southeastern China.
The U.S. should dominate in solar, but we are getting absolutely smoked.
