At a provincial government press briefing, officials announced that Fujian has become a major clean-energy province during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. The province has balanced energy supply security with a green transition, accelerating reforms in energy production and consumption. It makes an important shift from a province with limited traditional energy to a major clean-energy province.

　　Energy supply remains critical for the transition, and Fujian is developing a diversified system integrating thermal, hydro, wind, and solar power. As of September, installed capacity hit 95.77 million kilowatts, with grid infrastructure strengthened and the Fujian-Guangdong interconnection completed—marking the first link between the State Grid and Southern Grid. This positions Fujian among the nation’s leaders in supply capacity and energy reliability.

　　Since 2023, clean energy has accounted for over 50% of both installed capacity and power generation. In the first half of 2025, clean energy made up 65.8% of capacity and 57.5% of generation—the highest in East China. Fujian also leads nationally in the share of nuclear power capacity and output. Renewable energy is fully utilized without curtailment, and electrification efforts pushed the terminal electrification rate to 36.8% in 2024.

　　Reforms are driving high-quality energy development. The electricity spot market achieved long-term continuous operation in September, while mid- and long-term trading strengthened. Last year, registered market entities grew 37%, with direct provincial transactions covering 61% of total consumption. Green power trading also surged, with 1.3 million green certificates traded.

　　Fujian has pioneered innovations in offshore wind, nuclear power, and energy storage, hosting China’s only national offshore wind testing base. The province produced the world’s largest 26-megawatt offshore wind turbine, while CATL remains the globe’s top lithium battery producer. The Hualong One reactor became the world’s first to enter commercial operation.

　　A provincial Development and Reform Commission official stated that green development proposals—including expanding renewable energy and building a modern energy system—are carefully reviewed for the 15th Five-Year Plan. Going forward, these suggestions will be treated seriously, systematically reviewed, studied in depth, and fully absorbed, with a focus on creating a Fujian-specific energy framework to more strongly support provincial energy security and the green development of industry.
