How do I export data from solar PV?

Data is now available through the .Stat Data Explorer, which also allows users to export data in Excel and CSV formats. Solar PV is a crucial pillar of clean energy transitions worldwide, underpinning efforts to reach international energy and climate goals.

How important is transporting solar PV products?

Transporting PV products accounts for only 3% of total PV emissions. Meeting international energy and climate goals requires the global deployment of solar PV to grow on an unprecedented scale.

What is the solar photovoltaics supply chain review?

The Solar Photovoltaics Supply Chain Review, produced by the DOE Solar Energy Technologies Office with support from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, will help the federal government to build more secure and diverse U.S. energy supply chains.

How has global solar PV manufacturing capacity changed over the last decade?

Global solar PV manufacturing capacity has increasingly moved from Europe, Japan and the United States to China over the last decade. China has invested over USD 50 billion in new PV supply capacity – ten times more than Europe − and created more than 300 000 manufacturing jobs across the solar PV value chain since 2011.

How many dumping and import taxes are imposed on solar PV?

Since 2011, the number of antidumping, countervailing and import duties levied against parts of the solar PV supply chain has increased from just 1 import tax to 16 duties and import taxes, with 8 additional policies under consideration. Altogether, these measures cover 15% of global demand outside of China.

How can solar PV supply chain concentration be mitigated?

For instance, PV supply chain concentration could be mitigated by investing in domestic manufacturing for certain segments of the solar PV supply chain or by diversifying supply sources.
