New solar capacity added between now and 2030 will account for 80% of the growth in renewable power globally by the end of this decade. Adoption accelerates due to declining costs, shorter permitting timelines and widespread social acceptance.
In the main-case forecast, India’s capacity additions more than quadruple from 15 GW in 2023 to 62 GW in 2030. In Latin America, higher retail prices spur distributed solar PV system buildouts, and supportive policies for utility-scale wind and PV installations in Brazil boost renewable energy growth to new highs.
Global solar manufacturing capacity is expected to reach over 1 100 GW by the end of 2024, more than double projected PV demand. This oversupply has caused module prices to more than halve since early 2023, leading to negative net margins for integrated solar PV manufacturers in 2024.
Globally, solar PV alone accounted for three-quarters of renewable capacity additions worldwide. Prior to the COP28 climate change conference in Dubai, the International Energy Agency (IEA) urged governments to support five pillars for action by 2030, among them the goal of tripling global renewable power capacity.
Fueled by technological innovations, supportive public policies, and an increasing consumer base, solar developers are well-positioned to lead this renewable revolution in the commercial and industrial space.
The share of solar PV and wind in global electricity generation is forecast to double to 25% in 2028 in our main case. This rapid expansion in the next five years will have implications for power systems worldwide.
