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.
In total, 93% of the global population lives in countries where the average of daily PV potential is in the range between 3 and 5 kWh/kWp. Around 20% of the global population lives in 70 countries boasting excellent conditions for PV, where the long term PVOUT average exceeds 4.5 kWh/kWp per day.
It is published as a partial output of the Global Photovoltaic Power Potential Study, analysing data from the Global Solar Atlas, World Bank Open Data and other public sources. It is a part of global ESMAP initiative on Renewable Energy Resource Mapping, to support the appropriate scale-up of solar power in the worldwide energy mix.
Lastly, countries in the favorable mid-range between 3.5 and 4.5 kWh/kWp account for 71% of the global population. These include the five most populous countries (China, India, the United States, Indonesia and Brazil) and about 100 other countries. Average practical PV power potential at Level 1 (PVOUT) compared to theoretical potential (GHI).
The relative differences in electricity tariffs can by far exceed the differences in practical PV potential (and LCOE). Therefore, PV generation can be profitable also in countries with some of the lowest PV potential (such as Denmark, UK, Germany and Japan).
A total of 18 Chinese companies were selected in the top 20 list, with a total output of more than 440GW in 2023, gradually taking over the global PV module market with their unique advantages. LONGi, the king of the PV industry, will supply 66.44GW of modules in 2023, up 42% year on year.
