Technical FAQs 4

How has solar energy changed the world in 2022?

In 2022, the world added more new solar capacity than all other energy sources for electricity combined. Global energy generation from solar photovoltaic (PV) panels, which convert sunlight into electricity, rose by 270 terawatt hours (TWh), marking a 26% rise on the previous year.

Could solar power be a revolution in the world's power grid?

According to the International Renewable Energy Agency, solar PV would be at the forefront of the revolution in the world’s power grid, alongside wind energy. The next step would be solar PV power, which would supply 25% of total electricity demand.

What is the contribution of solar energy to global electricity production?

While the contribution of solar energy to global electricity production remains generally low at 3.6%, it has firmly established itself among other renewable energy technologies, comprising nearly 31% of the total installed renewable energy capacity in 2022 (IRENA, 2023).

What is the global solar power tracker?

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.
