I have just uploaded a new report in the Classroom section (6.2 - Industry Reports) looking at why China still relies so heavily on coal, despite building lots of solar panels and wind farms.
China's electricity grid was built for coal, not renewables so it can't actually use all the solar and wind electricity being produced.
The report shares some statistics about the electricity from renewables in China. Also some important details about China's electricity grid.
