Annual savings of $20 billion are possible across six Southeastern states by reaching 45% solar generation by 2035, according to a national laboratory study.

His remarks came at the time when his government is planning to target up to 100,000 MW of solar generation by 2022, far more than an existing 20,000 MW target by 2020.

The Saudi Arabia Solar Industries Association (SASIA, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia) has released its comments on the nation's plans to procure solar generation as outlined in the recent King Abdullah City for Atomic and Renewable Energy (K.A.CARE) white paper.

Germany installed nearly 1,000 MW (1 GW) of new solar power in September, bringing its total for the year up to 6,200 MW (6.22 GW). These statistics were provided by the German Federal Network Agency, The Bundesnetzagentur (or BNetzA). The solar industry there also saw solar generation growth of over 50% in the first 9 months of 2012.

Solar power could be on the brink of economic breakthrough, reaching investment levels of €70 billion in 2015, according to a major study out this week. The report, Solar Generation 6, by the European Photovoltaic Industry Association (EPIA) and Greenpeace International estimates that photovoltics could meet 12% of European demand by 2020 and up to 9% of the world’s demand by 2030.

Đó là một trong những kết luận của bản báo cáo Solar Generation 6 trong cuộc nghiên cứu do Hiệp hội Công nghiệp Quang điện Châu Âu (EPIA) và Greenpeace International thực hiện. Theo ước tính của nghiên cứu này, quang đện có thể đáp ứng 12% nhu cầu của châu Âu tới năm 2020 và 9% nhu cầu toàn thế giới tới năm 2030.
