Rooftop solar photovoltaics (PV) occupy a special place in the clean energy transition. Rooftop PV is special among small, “distributed” clean energy generators in terms of deployed scale.
Nature Energy 9, 631–632 (2024) Cite this article Ensuring rooftop solar photovoltaics are deployed equitably requires understanding who installs, where, and when.
The results show that current global rooftop potential is 1.5 times the residential electricity demand. The market penetration of rooftop solar PV is much more dependent on socio-economic and policy factors than on the biophysical potential. Several aspects require further discussion.
The importance of scale in public support for solar energy development in upstate New York. It’s time for rooftop solar to compete with other renewables.
Three trends shaping the future of rooftop PV are an evolving policy and regulatory context, the market’s reaction to that evolving context, and the market’s transition from early adoption to mass diffusion.
Rooftop PV adopters in these energy communities are effectively credited for exported PV output at self-consumption rates, while non-adopters benefit from buying community rooftop PV output at lower rates than grid electricity. Energy communities provide another way for PV adopters to monetize services provided outside the home.
