As Global Rooftop Solar Booms, India Goes Missing

Energy research and business intelligence firm Rystad Energy has released a new report on global rooftop solar installations.
The firm predicts that rooftop solar PV installations are set to surge in the next three years, with total capacity reaching 94.7 gigawatts (GW) by 2025. This growth reflects the broader solar market, which has been on a tearaway boom since 2016. During this time, rooftop installations have jumped by 64% in five years, rising from 36 GW in 2017 to 59 GW in 2021 and now represent 30% of the total global solar capacity. The growth has been primarily driven by an increased adoption in China, where rooftop installations increased from 19.4 GW in 2017 to 27.3 GW in 2021. Before 2017, rooftop solar was almost non-existent in China, with only 4 GW of installed capacity in 2016. Read More...
