China Belt & Road Initiative brings in 128 GW installed power capacity in 10 years

20 November 2023

Chinese companies have made significant strides in the Belt & Road initiative's overseas power projects over the past decade. With an estimated investment value of around US$200 billion, over 300 projects have installed 128 GW of power, equivalent to 1.3 times Australia's installed capacity in 2022. However, challenges have emerged, leading to the cancellation or shelving of over 20% of projects to date.
