Rooftop photovoltaic has been important in the past and will likely remain so in the future. We used the IMAGE model to compare two scenarios-one in which we simulated the availability of rooftop photovoltaic and one in which we did not.
But there remains a substantial amount of work to be done to accelerate the deployment of rooftop solar PV to reach the current National target of 3 GW to 5 GW per year of new capacity set by the 10-year Energy Programme Decree (PPE).
The results show that current global rooftop potential is 1.5 times the residential electricity demand. The market penetration of rooftop solar PV is much more dependent on socio-economic and policy factors than on the biophysical potential. Several aspects require further discussion.
Next, we have added a new decision in the IMAGE model allowing household investment in rooftop photovoltaic based on the comparison of the whole-sale electricity price with the price of rooftop photovoltaic.
We used the IMAGE model to compare two scenarios-one in which we simulated the availability of rooftop photovoltaic and one in which we did not. We found that the share of photovoltaic in the total electricity production increases by 80% in 2050 in the scenario that includes rooftop photovoltaic.
