solar generation

Solar PV has met two-thirds (61%) of the US electricity demand growth in 2025, according to a report from think tank Ember.

Germany has installed 16.2GW of solar PV in 2025, according to an analysis by the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (ISE) based on the energy-charts.info data platform.

For the first time ever, solar PV was the biggest source of electricity in June 2025, according to data from energy think tank Ember.

Many European countries generated record levels of solar power in the first half of 2025, according to figures from Fraunhofer ISE.

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.

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

Japan will need to have 689GW of total installed capacity for solar and wind power generation by 2050 to reach the goal of net zero, according to a study conducted by BloombergNEF (BNEF).

Solar PV generation in the US during 2022 has increased by 24.14% year-on-year according to the country’s Energy Information Administration (EIA) latest report.

The rise in solar and wind generation met over three-quarters of the global electricity demand growth in the first half of 2022, according to a report from think tank Ember.

While renewables were the largest source of generation in Europe for the sixth consecutive quarter, solar output in the continent shrunk during Q3, a new report from energy data analyst EnAppSys says.
