The Global Solar Power Tracker is a worldwide dataset of utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal facilities. It covers all operating solar farm phases with capacities of 1 megawatt (MW) or more and all announced, pre-construction, construction, and shelved projects with capacities greater than 20 MW. Some data are also included ...
Other statistics (minima, maxima, percentiles) describe the country solar power potential in better detail. Distribution of a photovoltaic power output histogram communicates how much land in the country is available in practical potential Levels 0, 1, and 2, and various PVOUT ranges.
In 2018, a cumulative capacity of more than 480 GWp of PV power was installed worldwide . Over one-third of the global capacity was installed in China, while the second third was made up of a combi-nation of Japan, the United States, and Germany. In total, the top 15 countries accounted for 90% of all PV capacity (Figure 3.13).
Data for the United States, Australia and Poland is for the period of January to June. All other countries are for the period of January to July. In China, the country with the largest solar fleet, solar additions for January-July 2024 were 28% higher than in the same period in 2023.
The midpoint estimate assumes that 85% of exported capacity results in installations, leading to an estimated 115 GW of solar capacity. Low and high estimates assume installation rates of 60% and 110%, respectively, resulting in a plausible range of 81-149 GW.
Countries need to plan ahead to make the most of the high levels of solar capacity being built today and ensure the continued build-out of capacity in the coming years. Ember estimates that at the current rate of additions, the world will install 593 GW of solar panels this year.
This document provides the most comprehensive global overview of the development of the Photovoltaics sector, covering policies, drivers, technologies, statistics and industry analysis. · Global PV Installations: A record-breaking 456 GW of photovoltaic capacity was installed globally in 2023.
