Thermal power plant (coal) capacity is expected to increase from 1190 GWe in 2019 to 1300 GWe in 2035.China’s nuclear-generating capacity increased by 9.1% year on year from 44.6 GWe to 48.7 GWe. There are 12 more nuclear reactors under construction in China, with a combined capacity of 12.2 GWe. There are 42 units planned that would add 48.70 GWe of capacity.China’s total electricity generation totalled 7142.2 TWh in 2019, a 5.2% increase from the 6791.42 TWh produced in 2018.
