At present, the world has begun to care about the energy crisis, and the theme of the new period is energy saving and emission reduction. The development of green and clean energy is under way. As a key of energy-saving technology, the development of distributed photovoltaic power generation has achieved remarkable results. Large-scale construction of distributed photovoltaic power generation project enables us to use solar power generation, which reduces energy consumption effectively, realizes energy conservation and environmental protection, and has a very positive effect on the sustainable use of resources. This paper introduces the present situation and prospect of distributed photovoltaic power generation in China.
