A UK research concludes that aerosols reduced global solar production by 5.8% by 2023, equivalent to 111 TWh. Although China accounted for more than half of the world total by 2023, the country is the only large solar energy producing region that shows a decrease in annual losses. Pollution from coal power plants can significantly limit the energy production of solar installations, particularly in areas where plants are located close to each oth…
Pollution from coal plants can reduce solar generation by over 5%
Research from the UK finds aerosols reduced global solar output by 5.8% in 2023, equivalent to 111 TWh. While China accounted for over half the global total in 2023, the country is the only major solar-producing region found to be demonstrating a decline in annual losses.Pollution from coal-fired power plants can significantly limit the energy output from solar installations, particularly in areas where plants are located nearby, according to ne…
A new study published in the journal Nature Sustainability reveals a worrying problem for the future of renewable energies: the pollution from coal plants, called "enemies of solar photovoltaics", represents a tangible threat to the global energy transition. The stake is immense, since almost 6% of the world's production of solar energy was lost in 2023, or 111 TWh. A concern that affects the whole world Even though solar energy is seen as a pro…
