Theoretical potential for PV power generation is best characterized by the long-term distribution of solar resource, in other words, the ‘amount of fuel’ available for PV electricity generation at a given loca-tion.
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.
The share of solar PV and wind in global electricity generation is forecast to double to 25% in 2028 in our main case. This rapid expansion in the next five years will have implications for power systems worldwide.
Using the dataset reconstructed based on the PSO-XGBoost model, combined with GIS-based approaches and a general solar PV power model, comprehensive assessments of solar radiation resources and PV power potential in China were conducted, while their spatial patterns and spatiotemporal variability characteristics were elucidated.
The first detailed global overview of PV power potential has been calculated by Solargis, in 2016, and released within the Global Solar Atlas . The data was further updated in 2019.
