China Sets Ambitious Target for Solar Power Capacity by 2030
The Chinese government has announced an ambitious target to increase its solar power capacity to 1,200 gigawatts (GW) by 2030. This move is part of the country's broader strategy to reduce carbon emissions and transition to a more sustainable energy mix. The new target represents a significant increase from the current installed capacity of around 300 GW. The government plans to achieve this by accelerating the construction of large-scale solar farms, promoting rooftop solar installations, and providing financial incentives for renewable energy projects.

Solar Power to Become Cheapest Energy Source by 2025
According to a new report by the International Energy Agency (IEA), solar power is expected to become the cheapest source of electricity in most parts of the world by 2025. The report highlights the rapid decline in the cost of solar panels and the increasing efficiency of solar technology. As a result, solar power is becoming more competitive with fossil fuels, even without subsidies. The report predicts that the global installed capacity of solar power will more than triple by 2025, driven by strong demand in emerging markets and technological advancements.
