China's newly-added installed capacity of renewable energy hit 172 million kilowatts in the first nine months of the year, a 93 percent increase compared to the same period last year.

By the end of September, the country's total installed capacity of renewable energy reached 1.38 billion kilowatts, which accounted for 49.6 percent of the country's total installed power generation capacity and has exceeded that of coal-fired power, Xinhua reported.
