Solar power has improved the livelihoods of local people. For people living off-grid in remote villages in Laos, solar energy offers a clean, sustainable way to bring electricity for all, and the promise to transform their lives.
Laos Energy Security (LES) is a part of the U.S. Government’s initiative: “Enhancing Development and Growth through Energy” (CLEAN EDGE Asia). CLEAN EDGE Asia supports expanded access to energy, promotes energy diversification and trade and integration of clean energy markets, and strengthens energy security throughout the Indo-Pacific region.
VIENTIANE, Feb. 1 (Xinhua) -- A total of 58 solar power plants have been completed or under construction across Laos with a total installed capacity of 7,656 MW, local daily Vientiane Times reported on Tuesday. Eight of these plants have been completed and 50 are under construction, said the report.
Of this amount, 77.59 percent will come from hydropower and the rest will come from solar, wind and coal-fired power plants, said the report. Laos' capacity for solar power is expected to range from 10,000 MW to 15,000 MW, while wind power potential is estimated at about 100,000 MW, according to the report. ■

In 2019, Lao PDR’s total primary energy supply (TPES) was 5.9 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe), and the energy mix consisted of hydropower, oil, coal, solar and biomass.

Regarding solar power per capita, Estonia has emerged as one of the new leaders. The country is ranked 6th among 27 EU members, with 596 Watt per capita in 2022, jumping from 405 in 2021. With accelerated growth in recent years, it has the potential to reach an even higher mark soon. Thanks to a steady flow of. . Roofit.solaris a company that produces steel roofs with integrated solar panels in a traditional Nordic design style. These roofs generate on-site energy. . Solarstoneis an Estonian startup that produces building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) that integrate solar panels with regular roof tiles. The company’s Click-on Full Solar Roof concept. . According to the report, the EU’s total solar power capacity grew by 25%, from 167.5 GW in 2021 to 208.9 GW in 2022. And it will only grow further with the “most likely” scenario promising to double it by 2026. “The numbers are clear. Solar is offering Europe a lifeline. [pdf]
Solarstone is reinforcing Estonia's commitment to sustainable energy solutions by opening Europe's largest solar roof factory to produce 14 times as many building-integrated solar roofs as Tesla in the U.S. The factory can assemble 13,000 integrated solar panels per month.
According to Estonian Public Broadcasting, Evecon currently has 40 MW of solar parks in operation and will seek to deploy additional renewable energy capacity in Estonia and the Baltic region. The firm is allegedly planning to have 1,100 MW of solar and 700 MW of wind projects under development in 2025-2026.
Estonia has seen a significant increase in its solar power capacity in 2022, becoming one of the leaders in solar power per capita among EU members. With growing investments and innovative startups, it now aims to be fully green-powered by 2030.

So far, it has been a key objective of Estonian energy policy. Being a Nordic country with less sunlight than in Western and Southern Europe, Estonia has achieved a solid place at the top with its 1,923 sunny hours in the year.
In Parnu County’s Laaneranna municipality, western Estonia, Evecon plans to build a 70-MW photovoltaic (PV) park that will supposedly become the largest one of its kind in the Baltics. Construction is planned to be initiated next year, with power generation due to begin early in 2024.

Solar power in Mexico has the potential to produce vast amounts of energy. 70% of the country has an insolation of greater than 4.5 kWh/m /day. Using 15% efficient photovoltaics, a square 25 km (16 mi) on each side in the state of Chihuahua or the Sonoran Desert (0.01% of Mexico) could supply all of Mexico's electricity. . A law requiring 35% of electricity from renewable resources by 2024 and carbon emission reductions of 50% below 2000 levels by 2050 was introduced in 2012. Combined with declining solar installation costs, it was estimated. . Historically, the main applications of solar energy technologies in Mexico have been for non-electric system applications for , water heating and drying crops. As in most countries, wind power development preceded solar power. . • • • • • . Currently, 98% of all distributed generation can be attributed to solar PV panels installed on rooftops or small businesses. This installed capacity has greatly increased from 3 kW in 2007 to 247.6 MW by the end of 2016. According to the Mexican Ministry of. . • • [pdf]
The combined solar capacity of the said utility-scale solar parks reached 2.7 GW while they obtained a direct investment of over USD 6.2 billion. 2018 is the first period where Mexico’s solar PV market reached the GW scale mark. With this high scale mark, the total installed solar PV capacity in Mexico reached 3.075 GW.
In 2022, the installed capacity in the North American country was around nine gigawatts, an increase of nearly 10 percent in comparison to the previous year. In comparison to 2010, this capacity grew by more than 310-fold. In 2021, Mexico had the second largest solar PV capacity in Latin America, ranking only behind Brazil.
2018 is the first period where Mexico’s solar PV market reached the GW scale mark. With this high scale mark, the total installed solar PV capacity in Mexico reached 3.075 GW. It was then increased by 32% and reached 4.057 GW in June 2019.
Solar PV was successful in both, securing 1,691 MW of the 2,085 MW auctioned in the first and 1573 MW of 3473 MW in the second auction. In 2013, 22% of the installed electricity generation capacity in Mexico was from renewable sources. The majority, 18.1% coming from hydroelectricity, 2.5% from wind power and 0.1% from solar PV.
Using 15% efficient photovoltaics, a square 25 km (16 mi) on each side in the state of Chihuahua or the Sonoran Desert (0.01% of Mexico) could supply all of Mexico's electricity. Installed Capacity of total distributed clean energy in Mexico.
According to Mexico’s Solar market forecast period 2020-2024, the installed solar PV capacity is expected to increase by 60 percent from 2020-to 2024. While, the expected solar capacity for the next coming years is 8.7 gigawatts, surpassing the installed solar capacity in the past decade, 2019.
