China plans to expand its installed capacity to 1,600-1,650 gigawatts by 2020, with thermal power capacity at 920 GW, an industry official said in prepared remarks ahead of a Thursday address at a McCloskey coal conference.

The share of thermal power in the total capacity will decrease to around 60% by 2020, said Xue Jing, director of the statistics and information department of China Electricity Council.

Based on this target,
China would bring online an average of 60 GW of installed capacity every year, with an average annual growth of 6%-7% in the next 10 years, Xue said.

The 2020 target includes 920 GW of hydropower, 70 GW of nuclear power, 150 GW-200 GW of wind power and 100 GW of solar power.
