The solar PV market maintained its record-breaking streak, with new capacity installations totalling to approximately 191 GW in 2022 (IRENA, 2023). This was the largest annual capacity increase ever recorded and brought the cumulative global solar PV capacity to 1,133 GW.

Which country installed the most solar PV inverter in 2018?

With 44.4 GW of annual installations and 48.7% of the global market, China was the most prominent country in the global solar PV inverter market in 2018. After China, the United States registered annual installation of 10.9 GW, representing 12% of global solar PV inverters installed in 2018.

Is installing a solar PV system feasible and economically affordable?

Based on these findings, we can conclude that installing a solar PV system is feasible and economically affordable. Installing a PV system with an optimizer increases the energy yield and ensures that the PV system is fully monitored and maintained. This prolongs the lifetime of the PV system.

How will solar PV transform the global electricity sector?

Alongside wind energy, solar PV would lead the way in the transformation of the global electricity sector. Cumulative installed capacity of solar PV would rise to 8 519 GW by 2050 becoming the second prominent source (after wind) by 2050.

What factors encourage solar PV installation in Indonesia?

In Indonesia, the intrinsic factor that encourages the installation of solar PVs is the local demand for energy for housing, and the installation of solar PVs in low-cost homes can address this challenge. The extrinsic factor that encourages solar PV installation is the adoption of green energy in consumers’ lifestyles.
