I. the overall development of renewable energy the State Energy Administration conscientiously implements the new strategy of "four revolutions and one cooperation" for energy security, anchors the carbon neutralization target, implements the "14th five-year Plan" for the development of renewable energy, speeds up the construction of major projects such as large-scale wind photovoltaic bases, large-scale hydropower stations and pumped storage power stations, and focuses on energy security and livelihood protection. Efforts will be made to promote the high-quality development of renewable energy.

The installed scale of renewable energy has expanded steadily. In the first three quarters of 2022, China installed 90.36 million kilowatts of renewable energy, accounting for 78.8% of the country's newly installed power generation. Of these, hydropower increased by 15.9 million kilowatts, wind power by 19.24 million kilowatts, photovoltaic power generation by 52.6 million kilowatts, and biomass power generation by 2.62 million kilowatts, accounting for 13.9 percent, 16.8 percent, 45.8 percent and 2.3 percent of the country's newly installed capacity, respectively. By the end of September 2022, the installed capacity of renewable energy in China has reached 1.146 billion kilowatts. Among them, hydropower installed 406 million kilowatts (including pumped storage capacity 43 million kilowatts), wind power installed 348 million kilowatts, photovoltaic power generation installed 358 million kilowatts, biomass power generation installed 4060 kilowatts.

Electricity generation from renewable energy has increased steadily. In the first three quarters of 2022, the national renewable energy generation reached 1.94 trillion kilowatt-hours. Of this total, hydropower above scale was 950.7 billion kilowatt hours, up 5 percent over the same period last year; wind power was 544.1 billion kilowatt hours, up 15.9 percent; photovoltaic power generation was 328.6 billion kilowatt hours, up 32.2 percent over the same period last year; and biomass power generation was 112.9 billion kilowatt hours, up 0.1 percent over the same period last year.

Renewable energy continues to maintain a high level of utilization. In the first three quarters of 2022, the hydropower utilization rate of major river basins across the country was about 98.6 percent, an increase of 1.1 percentage points over the same period last year; the average utilization rate of wind power was 96.5 percent, 0.5 percentage points lower than that of the same period last year; and the average utilization rate of photovoltaic power generation was 98.2 percent, an increase of 0.2 percentage points over the same period last year.

II. Hydropower construction and operation in the first three quarters of 2022, the country's installed hydropower capacity increased by 1590 kilowatts. By the end of September 2022, hydropower had installed 406 million kilowatts (of which pumped storage capacity was 43 million kilowatts).

Hydropower generation at and above the national scale is 950.7 billion kilowatt-hours, an increase of 5 percent over the same period last year, and the average number of hours of hydropower utilization throughout the country is 2729 hours. The utilization rate of water energy in major river basins across the country is about 98.6 percent, an increase of 1.1 percentage points over the same period last year.

III. Construction and operation of wind power in the first three quarters of 2022, 19.24 million kilowatts of wind power were installed nationwide, including 18 million kilowatts of onshore wind power and 124 million kilowatts of offshore wind power. From the distribution of new installed capacity, the "three north" areas account for about 74.3%, and the central and eastern and southern regions account for about 25.7%. By the end of September 2022, a total of 348 million kilowatts of wind power had been installed nationwide, including 320 million kilowatts of onshore wind power and 2726 million kilowatts of offshore wind power.

The national wind power generation capacity was 544.1 billion kilowatt hours, an increase of 15.9 percent over the same period last year. Among the areas with higher utilization hours, Fujian 2053 hours, Xinjiang 1920 hours, Mengdong 1841 hours, Mengxi 1784 hours.

The national average utilization rate of wind power was 96.5%, and the utilization rate of wind power in Qinghai and Xinjiang increased significantly, reaching 93.1% and 94.7% respectively, up 4.3 and 2.2 percentage points respectively over the same period last year.

Fourth, the construction and operation of photovoltaic power generation in the first three quarters of 2022, the country installed 52.6 million kilowatts of photovoltaic capacity, including 17.27 million kilowatts of photovoltaic power stations and 3533 million kilowatts of distributed photovoltaic power stations. By the end of September 2022, photovoltaic power generation had a cumulative installed capacity of 358 million kilowatts. From the perspective of the newly installed layout, the regions with relatively high installed capacity are North China, East China, and Central China, accounting for 30.0%, 25.0% and 19.1% of the new installed capacity, respectively.

Photovoltaic power generation across the country was 328.6 billion kilowatt hours, an increase of 32.2 percent over the same period last year; the number of utilization hours was 968 hours, an increase of 49 hours over the same period last year; the areas with higher utilization hours were 1237 hours in Northeast China and 1056 hours in North China. Among them, the provinces with the highest utilization rate are Heilongjiang 1316 hours and Jilin 1263 hours. The utilization rate of photovoltaic power generation nationwide was 98.2 percent, an increase of 0.2 percentage points over the same period last year.

V. Construction and operation of biomass power generation in the first three quarters of 2022, biomass power generation increased by 2.62 million kilowatts, with a cumulative installed capacity of 40.6 million kilowatts and 112.9 billion kilowatt-hours of biomass power generation. The top five provinces with cumulative installed capacity are Guangdong, Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Henan, with 4.16 million kilowatts, 4.11 million kilowatts, 2.96 million kilowatts, 2.84 million kilowatts and 255 million kilowatts respectively; the top five provinces with new installed capacity are Guangdong, Heilongjiang, Henan, Liaoning and Guangxi, with 394000 kilowatts, 286000 kilowatts, 279000 kilowatts, 233 kilowatts and 180 kilowatts respectively The top five provinces in electricity generation are Guangdong, Shandong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Anhui, with 14.22 billion kWh, 11.54 billion kWh, 8.47 billion kWh, 8.4 billion kWh and 7.82 billion kWh respectively.
