The dataset comprises measured PV power generation data and corresponding on-site weather data gathered from 60 grid-connected rooftop PV stations in Hong Kong over a three-year period.
The total installed capacity of installed rooftop PV for 2023 reached 2.9 GW from 314,507 units, surpassing the level of commissioned large-scale generation projects in 2023 (2.8 GW). Additionally, rooftop PV reached a major milestone in March 2023, surpassing 20 GW of total installed capacity across the country2.
Thanks to the unprecedented solar capacity growth in 2023, a record-breaking 473 GW of renewable power capacity was built worldwide – a 54% increase from 308 GW in 2022. The strong growth in 2023 brought the world closer to achieving the ambitious goal of tripling renewable capacity by 2030.
The report, developed with data provided by solar consultancy SunWiz, has also found that rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) system installations reached 20 GW of total capacity across Australia in 2023. New South Wales broke the record for the highest annual installed capacity of any state, with 970 MW of new rooftop solar systems.
Almost three-quarters of all renewable capacity built in 2023 was solar. Wind additions also increased by a sizable 51% in 2023, accounting for another quarter of renewable capacity additions in 2023. After two years of slower growth, 2023 saw a new record for wind capacity additions, beating the previous record set in 2020.
Solar capacity additions surged 74% in 2023, reaching a record 346 GW annual additions. China was the key driver behind the acceleration but solar's phenomenal growth is spreading globally, with 28 countries installing over one gigawatt of new capacity in 2023.
Power generation from solar PV increased by a record 270 TWh in 2022, up by 26% on 2021. Solar PV accounted for 4.5% of total global electricity generation, and it remains the third largest renewable electricity technology behind hydropower and wind.
Workers in the solar industry face various risks, like:Falls from high rooftopsElectrocution or other electric hazardsRepetitive stress injuriesCuts or sprains.
Solar power installations can be the source of a combination of risks throughout their life cycle. This may be influenced by the following main areas of hazards: exposure to toxic chemicals and metals, electric risks (PV)/burns (STP), working at height, and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs).
There are multiple general risks associated with solar energy globally. Severe weather and natural disasters pose significant threats to the durability and effectiveness of solar panels. When exposed to harsh weather conditions, solar panels are at risk of micro-cracking and micro-fractures caused by strong winds.
All operations on small-scale solar power installations require training to recognise the various risks and to take the appropriate safety and health measures. The manufacture, disposal or recycling of PV systems can lead to exposure to chemicals.
In the new report, Allianz Commercial risk consultants identify some of the potential hazards posed by solar PV installations and highlight best practice for loss prevention and risk mitigation.
Building on flood plains for example could mean that the solar farm is at risk of flooding or water damage. Building near archaeological sites also presents risks which would be reflected in higher insurance premiums. 5.
Demand for solar power is rising in a context of high energy prices and the drive towards a low-carbon future. But, as a new Emerging Risk Trend Talk report from Allianz Commercial highlights, the installation of solar photovoltaic panels introduces risks that must be mitigated if the potential of this power source is to be safely harnessed.

This annual report, developed under IEA PVPS Task 1, provides a comprehensive overview of Italy's photovoltaic (PV) market, including installation data, policy frameworks, industry developments, and future prospects.
Photovoltaics represent one of the renewable energy sources the country relies the most on. Italy has registered a seven-fold increase in the number of photovoltaic systems since 2010, reaching over 1.2 million in 2022. That year, Lombardy and Veneto were the regions contributing the most to this sector's growth.
This expected growth of photovoltaic manufacturers is considered a positive element for the Italian photovoltaic industry. However, the achievement of new national targets by 2030 – a total installed PV capacity of 80 GW - is expected to bring further positive effects on the Italian photovoltaic industry sector.
The IEA Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme (IEA PVPS) is one of the TCP's within the IEA and was established in 1993. The mission of the programme is to “enhance the international collaborative efforts which facilitate the role of photovoltaic solar energy as a cornerstone in the transition to sustainable energy systems.”
