Currently, China's installed generating capacity totals 400 mm kW, making it the world's second largest power generation giant after the United States.
It is reported that over 70 % of China's power generating facilities are fuelled by coal, and the remaining are almost all hydropower installations.

The power generation capacity of a nuclear plant is around 7 mm kW.
It is estimated that China's power generation capacity will reach 600-700 mm kW by 2010, and 900-1,000 mm kW by 2020.
