Influential think tank, the China National Renewable Energy Centre (CNREC), has recommended the country's 2020 solar target be increased from 110 GW to 200 GW, after China surpassed the existing target in August 2017. The CNREC said that China's current policy of encouraging renewable energy development was not sufficient and needed to change. The government's National Energy Administration will ultimately decide whether to act on the proposals.
