China Adds 9.52 GW of Solar in April, Marking Fourth Straight Monthly Decline

China installed 9.52 gigawatts of new solar capacity in April, extending a four-month run of declining additions despite a modest pickup from March.
March additions were 8.91 gigawatts, but April's total was far below the 45.22 gigawatts recorded a year earlier when policy changes had triggered a rush of installations.
The latest data from the National Energy Administration points to continued weakness in domestic demand, suggesting last year's policy-driven surge has not been sustained.
