Most of the solar power in Northwest China is generated inutility-scale solar power plants, which led to power production that exceeded the targeted level in recent years. At the same time, the local demand for electricity was not growing enough to match with the rise of power supply.
The government incentives have also contributed to the curtailment of solar energy, as many of the solar projects have been built in northern and western regions of China where there is a low demand for electricity and a lack of infrastructure to transfer energy towards China's main power grid.
As such, critics argue that investments into renewable energy sources such as solar power are means to increase the power of the central state rather than protect the environment. This argument has been complemented by China's expansion of fossil fuel plants in conjunction with solar energy.

At first glance, solar power at gas stations is an oxymoron. One emerging example is the global gas station solar power trend, where the leading California-based tech firm Enphase aims to play a key role. To start, running multiple refrigerators, air conditions and lighting, inside and outside, 24 hours a day can cost thousands of dollars each month especially with current high utility prices. FREMONT, Calif. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH), a global energy technology company and the world's leading supplier of microinverter-based solar and battery systems, today announced that its IQ8™ Microinverters have been selected for gas station solar. Imagine pulling into a gas station where solar panels glint from the canopy above, quietly powering EV chargers and storing energy for nighttime operations. This isn't sci-fi - it's happening at forward-thinking stations like China Petroleum's Weiyu Road station in Shanxi, where 219 BIPV panels now.
