In 2022, the power generation in China amounted to approximately 4.08 billion tons standard coal equivalent (SCE). This figure encompasses the primary power generation of all power generating companies in China, including power generation from coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear power, geothermal energy, water power, wind power, but excluding biomass and solar energy.

(in billion tons standard coal equivalent)
Note: The coefficient for conversion of electric power into SCE (standard coal equivalent) is calculated on the basis of the data on average coal consumption in generating electric power in the same year.
