Several European countries have underestimated the deployment of solar PV by 205GW by 2030, according to energy think tank Ember’s latest report.

Figures from US research firm Rystad Energy suggest that the world will need to invest US$3.1 trillion into grid infrastructure before 2030.

More than a quarter of the European Union’s (EU) electricity (27%) came from solar and wind in 2023, according to new analysis from energy thinktank Ember.

While an abundance of Chinese modules could help meet climate change targets, such a reliance could leave many countries delicately balanced.

Turkey's technical solar potential could reach 120GW, covering 45% of the country's total electricity consumption, according to Ember.

118 countries have signed the ‘Global Renewables and Energy Efficiency Pledge’ on Saturday (2 December) at COP28 in Dubai to treble global installed capacity by 2030.

Solar PV has led the European Union’s growth in renewable energy generation during the first half of 2023, up 13% from H1 2022.

Ember has published a report into grid connectivity in Europe, calling on transmission system operators to build grid infrastructure faster.

A record growth from solar and wind power, increased its global electricity to 12% in 2022, however, other clean energy resources have dropped for the first time since 2011, according to energy thinktank Ember.

Solar capacity grew significantly in India last year, and renewables dominated the country's power generation capacity additions in 2022, according to a study conducted by Ember.
