China's newly installed capacity of wind and photovoltaic power reached 62.51 million kW from January to April, data from the National Energy Administration showed on Thursday.

The figure accounted for 74 percent of the country's total newly installed capacity, up 11.5 ppts from a year ago. China's wind and photovoltaic power generation reached 482.8 billion kWh during the period, up 26.8% YoY.
