    Good for them. Its a fucking great thing.

    The researchers only looked at solar farms with a capacity of 20MW or more, which feed directly into the grid. That means that the total volume of solar power in China could be much higher, as small scale solar farms account for about 40% of China’s solar capacity.

    This ignores all solar under 20MW, which is for many countries most of new solar capacity.

    Doesn’t China have like 95% of the world’s solar production by volume or something? Not sure if that changes anything about the statistic though.
