China is by far the number one global solar power producer in terms of installed capacity, but is 150th on the list of nations ranked by the World Bank in terms of photovoltaic (PV) power potential.
Looking at the map above, it's no surprise that many areas near the equator have relatively higher PV potential given the amount of sunlight they receive throughout the year, the high angle of the sun, and the lack of snow and ice to reflect solar radiation back to space.
The result was a first-of-its-kind global dataset of solar facilities. We located 68,661 facilities, which is 432% more than previously best-available datasets. We enriched this dataset by including installation dates, identifying the land-cover class that the facility was installed on, and matching to existing asset-level databases.
A solar project phase is generally defined as a group of one or more solar units that are installed under one permit, one power purchase agreement, and typically come online at the same time. Each solar farm included in the tracker is linked to a wiki page on the GEM wiki. The most recent release of this data was in June 2024.
Other countries with significant installed solar capacity include the United States, Japan, Germany, and India. What materials are used to make solar panels? Most solar panels are made using silicon, which is a common and widely available material.
