Global PV Installations: A record-breaking 456 GW of photovoltaic capacity was installed globally in 2023.
· China’s Dominance: China’s solar market accounted for the majority of global growth, contributing 277 GW, while the rest of the world added 179 GW.
· Operational Capacity: By early 2024, over 1.6 TW of PV systems were operational globally, producing 2,136 TWh of electricity, which accounts for 8.3% of global electricity demand.
· Emission Reductions: These PV systems reduced 0.92 gigatons of CO2 emissions, equivalent to 2.5% of global energy-related emissions, if we consider they now replace baseload power generation – confirming solar energy as a cornerstone of the sustainable energy transition.
