Data Sources and Methodology
Capacity values are derived from the following source:
This data source covers capacities in the 0–6 MW range. Data values are reported as of 2025 Q4.
This data source covers capacities in the 1–6 MW range (partially). Data values are reported as of 2025 Q4.
Guangdong's figure is estimated from the NEA-reported distributed PV total. NEA defines distributed PV as PV developed on the user side, connected to the distribution network, and balanced within the distribution system rather than a strict <1 MW size cutoff.
For this release, we use NEA reported distributed solar total minus GEM's 1–6 MW solar capacity recorded in GEM Global Solar Power Tracker. For Guangdong, this is calculated as 46,391 MW minus 323.6 MW, resulting in an estimated 46,067.4 MW of 0–1 MW capacity.
Because GEM’s 1–6 MW coverage is partial, the subtraction method may overestimate the 0–1 MW capacity.
AC/DC Correction
