Solar photovoltaics (PV) is a mature technology ready to contribute to this challenge. Throughout the last decade, a higher capacity of solar PV was installed globally than any other power-generation technology and cumulative capacity at the end of 2019 accounted for more than 600 GW.
Future research could expand the scope of the literature search, monitor the latest policies, and consider as many moderating variables as possible to enhance understanding of the relationships between various variables and the intention to adopt solar photovoltaic technology.
This work was supported by the Bavarian State Government (project “PV-Tera – Reliable and cost efficient photovoltaic power generation on the terawatt scale,” no. 44-6521a/20/5).
Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. In recent years, research on the intention to adopt solar photovoltaic technology has yielded rich results. However, controversy still exists regarding the key antecedents of households’ intention to adopt solar photovoltaic technologies.
The meta-analysis results suggest that “Attitude” is the most critical factor affecting residents’ intention to adopt solar photovoltaic technology. This finding is in line with the Theory of Planned Behavior and is consistent with the results of most studies.
In China, for example, as shown in Figure 1, the jump from 30 MW in 2009 to over 600 GW in 2023 is enough to see its rapid development . According to the installed size and layout, solar photovoltaic systems can be divided into two categories: centralized and distributed photovoltaic.

Understanding Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Power Generation
Solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation is the process of converting energy from the sun into electricity using solar panels. Solar panels, also called PV panels, are combined into arrays in a PV system. PV systems can also be installed in grid-connected or off-grid (stand-alone) configurations. The basic components of these two configurations ...
