This document provides the most comprehensive global overview of the development of the Photovoltaics sector, covering policies, drivers, technologies, statistics and industry analysis. · Global PV Installations: A record-breaking 456 GW of photovoltaic capacity was installed globally in 2023.
The evolution of the solar PV industry so far has been remarkable, with several milestones achieved in recent years in terms of installations (including off-grid), cost reductions and technological advancements, as well as establishment of key solar energy associations (Figure 5).
Since 2015, the photovoltaic (PV) industry has entered a phase of stable development. Governments worldwide are increasingly emphasizing renewable energy, leading to the grid parity stage for PV power generation. Advanced digital techniques are being applied extensively in the performance simulation and optimization design of PV rooftops.
The high level of competition in the solar PV panel market, mainly due to the future market demand in and the competitiveness of leading countries, is compounded by the fact that transporting solar energy equipment is less cumbersome than transporting other renewable technologies (such as wind).
While utility-scale projects still predominate in 2050, the REmap analysis expects distributed solar PV installations to grow more rapidly, driven by policies and supportive measures, as well as consumer engagement in the clean energy transformation.
The exponential growth seen in PV markets has led to the development of large-scale power plants, which has increased demands for better tools for inspection and monitoring.
