Inner Mongolia¡äs New Energy Installed Capacity Breaks Through 140 Million Kilowatts
2025-6-18
It is learned from the Energy Bureau of the Autonomous Region that as of the end of May this year, the total installed capacity of new energy in the Autonomous Region has reached 143.09 million kilowatts, accounting for 52% of the region¡äs total power installed capacity. It has become the first province (region) in China where new energy installed capacity has exceeded 140 million kilowatts, continuing to lead the country in new energy development.
In recent years, the Autonomous Region has closely adhered to the strategic positioning of being an important national energy and strategic resource base. It has persisted in accelerating the development and construction of new energy, strengthened power grid planning and construction, simplified approval procedures, and promoted the synchronous planning, construction, and operation of power grids and power source projects, thus achieving a leading position in new energy development nationwide. From January to May this year, the new energy power generation in the region was 124.7 billion kilowatt-hours, a year-on-year increase of 39.5%, accounting for 36% of the region¡äs total power generation, a year-on-year increase of 9 percentage points. Among them, 43 billion kilowatt-hours of new energy was transmitted outside the region, a year-on-year increase of 62%; 81.7 billion kilowatt-hours of new energy was consumed locally, a year-on-year increase of 30.3%. The non-hydropower renewable energy power consumption responsibility weight reached 36.8%.
The Autonomous Region will continue to leverage its resource advantages, accelerate the construction of key projects such as the "Sand-Gobi-Desert¡± large-scale wind power and photovoltaic bases, integrated wind-solar power and desertification control projects, and photovoltaic assistance projects. It is ensured that the new energy installed capacity will increase by 40 million kilowatts this year, the total new energy scale will exceed 170 million kilowatts, and the external transmission of new energy power will exceed 100 billion kilowatt-hours, making greater contributions to the country¡äs realization of the "double carbon" goal.
