Solar PV capacity in Asia Pacific could triple to 1,500GW by 2030, with China driving deployment and Indonesia set to be the region’s fastest-growing market, according to Wood Mackenzie.
Global capital investment on renewables is expected to return to pre-pandemic levels in 2021, with solar PV set to account for the majority of clean energy capacity additions in the next five years, according to IHS Markit Energy Advisory Service.
Solar will likely play a major role in achieving Japan’s policy goal of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to zero by 2050 and could reach 130GW to 160GW in cumulative deployments by the 2030 financial year.
