6 Frequently Asked Questions about “Distribution characteristics of solar power stations around the world”

How is the spatial distribution of China's PV power stations mapped?

The spatial distribution of China's PV power stations in 2020 was mapped based on the GEE platform by including the proposed EPVI to provide real-world data support for further scientific evaluation.

What is the potential of solar energy?

To set the scene, we characterize the long-term energy availability of solar resource at any location, the theoretical potential. This potential is illustrated by the physical variable of global horizontal irradiation (GHI), which is the sum of direct and diffuse irradiation components received by a horizontal surface.

What is global photovoltaic power potential by country?

The World Bank has published the study Global Photovoltaic Power Potential by Country, which provides an aggregated and harmonized view on solar resource and the potential for development of utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) power plants from the perspective of countries and regions.

What is the distribution density of China's PV power stations in 2020?

As shown in Fig. 10 (c), the distribution density of China's PV power stations in 2020 is 273.07 km 2 / 10 6 km 2, with a high distribution density in Ningxia, Tianjin, Jiangsu, Shandong and Hebei (3001.11, 1555.45, 1167.11, 982.49, and 927.74 km 2 / 10 6 km 2, respectively).

How has distributed photovoltaics impacted power system planners & operators?

Rapid growth of distributed photovoltaics (DPV) has upended how power system planners and operators think about electricity grids. Falling costs of solar electricity have made on-site generation and consumption a low-cost option for access to new, clean power globally.

Will distributed solar PV capacity grow in 2024?

Globally, distributed solar PV capacity is forecast to increase by over 250% during the forecast period, reaching 530 GW by 2024 in the main case. Compared with the previous six-year period, expansion more than doubles, with the share of distributed applications in total solar PV capacity growth increasing from 36% to 45%.
