Jenny Chase (solar analyst at Bloomberg NEF) predicts 6TW of cumulated capacity at the end of 2030.
End of 2022 capacity was estimated at 1.2TW and BNEF predicts 2023 additions to exceed 400GW.
Is 6TW a low ball estimate?
Resolution criteria will be based on cumulated PV solar capacity for electricity generation as published by any of the following source (in decreasing priority order):
