4 FAQs about [Recent solar power generation]

Is solar power the fastest growing power generation technology?

Solar experienced the fastest growth among all power generation technologies in terms of electricity output, three times as much as wind power, which was ranked second. As if that weren't enough, global installed solar capacity surpassed 2 TW in 2024. It took nearly 70 years to reach the first terawatt, but only two more to double it.

When will solar power reach 350 GW?

In 2024, it took until September for global solar capacity additions to surpass 350 GW, while in 2025, the milestone was reached in June. The rapid expansion of solar capacity in recent years has made it the fastest growing source of new electricity generation.

Will solar power grow in 2025?

We expect that solar electricity generation supplied to the grid managed by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) will grow from 56 BkWh in 2025 to 106 BkWh by 2027. Increasing amounts of battery storage capacity help to support the fluctuations in solar output during the day.

How has solar impacted global power generation?

Regarding global power generation, solar nearly doubled its share over the past 3 years, growing by 1.3 percentage points only last year to a 7% share in the world's electricity mix. This growth continued to drive renewable penetration and pushed additions of conventional electricity sources to a new low.
