What is the share of distributed solar PV (dspv) in national installed capacity?

The share of distributed solar PV (DSPV) in national installed capacity of solar PV increased from 13.33% in 2016 to 31.1% in 2020, to which household solar PV (HSPV) contributed less than 20%.

Where does solar PV development occur in the world?

Rapid solar PV development has occurred in other areas since 2013, particularly in China. In 2017, China became the largest solar PV market, outperforming Europe, with approximately 1/3 of the world’s installed capacity. The world's cumulative installed solar PV power capacity passed 1046 GW in 2022 (IRENA, 2023). Table 3.

What is the future development trend of solar PV in China?

For the pathway modelled in this study, in which the technology improvement rate of HSPV during the past five years was considered, the total installed capacity would increase from 253 GW in 2020 to 1998 GW and 4548 GW in 2030 and 2050, respectively. Fig. 3. Future development trend of solar PV in China.

How has solar PV technology changed in 2022?

It is seen that the global weighted-average LCOE of solar PV technology reduced by about 89 % from 0.445 USD/kWh in 2010 to 0.049 USD/kWh in 2022. It is noticeable that the LCOE of PV technology has dropped into the range of fossil fuel electricity costs since 2014.

How will solar PV & wind impact global electricity generation?

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.

Will a virtual power plant boost distributed solar PV growth?

The development of virtual power plant facilitated by the internet of energy in the next several decades would further boost distributed solar PV growth , especially in China where about 6 trillion yuan is expected to be invested to building smarter grid during the 14th Five-Year-Plan.
