China's National Energy Administration said at a press conference that in 1H26, China's coal-fired power generation reached 2.5 trillion kilowatt-hours, with its share of total power generation falling to 49.7%. The proportion of coal-fired power generation in total output dropped below 50% for the first time in a half-year period, marking a new breakthrough in China's green and low-carbon energy transition.

Meanwhile, the share of renewable energy generation exceeded 40% for the first time. In 1H26, national renewable energy generation totaled nearly 2 trillion kilowatt-hours, accounting for 41.2% of total power generation and meeting nearly 40% of society's electricity demand. Among them, combined wind and solar power generation exceeded 1.2 trillion kilowatt-hours, accounting for about one-quarter of total electricity consumption.(da/u)~
