Of the countries of the world taking advantage of solar, it is China, the most populous in the world, who reigns supreme.

The National Energy Administration (NEA) made the revelation after the nation doubled its installed photovoltaic (PV) capacity in 2016. By the end of the year, China had hit a capacity of  77.42 gigawatts.

Worth celebrating?

If just considering raw numbers, it certainly is.

However, the country has announced plans to focus even more attention on clean energy, seeking to add more than 110 gigawatts within the next three years.

Such a goal could help the nation increase the proportion of its renewable energy use to 20% by 2030. To date, that number stands at a mere 11%.
