Chinese clean technology export trends

Overview

Chinese companies are experiencing significant growth in the export of clean energy technologies. During the third quarter of 2026, energy storage system firms saw overseas markets account for approximately 93% of total contract volume, with Europe and the Middle East driving over 70% of this demand. Notable contracts include a 11.275GWh deal by BYD in the UAE and a 6GWh order by Gotion High Tech in Saudi Arabia.

In September 2026, solar module exports rose 45% month-on-month to approximately 22.13 GW, largely fueled by a 153% increase in deliveries to the Middle East. While cumulative solar exports for the first nine months of 2026 were 12% lower than the previous year, other sectors showed robust year-on-year growth: electric vehicle exports rose 61%, wind turbine exports increased by 45%, and battery exports grew by 39%.
