China is forecasted to reach 1,000GW of installed solar capacity by 2026 (from 500GW today), which is pretty much equivalent to the total global solar power capacity today.

After that first TW, it's expected that the world (mostly China) will add a TW of capacity every year, starting 2026. Staggering speed of growth if it actually comes to fruition! For comparison, the world currently has a total of about 7 TW of installed capacity!
Note that capacity does not mean actual power generated, but this is still huge.
