Global PV Penetration
IEA estimates that in 2022, 6% of global electricity generation came
from PV.
•
The United States, despite being a leading PV market, is
below the global average and other leading markets in
terms of PV generation as a percentage of total country
electricity generation, with 5%.
If California were a country, its PV contribution
(28%) would be the highest.
