Solar power in Japan has been expanding since the late 1990s. By the end of 2017, cumulative installed PV capacity reached over 50 GW with nearly 8 GW installed in the year 2017. The country is a leading manufacturer of solar panels and is in the top 4 ranking for countries with the most solar PV installed.
Since 1978, solar irradiance has been directly measured by satellites with very good accuracy. [11]: 6 These measurements indicate that the Sun's total solar irradiance fluctuates by +-0.1% over the ~11 years of the solar cycle, but that its average value has been stable since the measurements started in 1978.
Data reflects assumptions of annual clear sky irradiance, annual average sky clearance, and available land area. All figures given in Exajoules. Quantitative relation of global solar potential vs. the world's primary energy consumption: Ratio of potential vs. current consumption (402 EJ) as of year: 3.9 (minimum) to 124 (maximum)

Solar power in Chile is an increasingly important source of energy. Total installed photovoltaic (PV) capacity in Chile reached 8.36 GW in 2023. [ 1 ] Solar energy provided 19.9% of national electricity generation in Chile in 2023, compared to less than 0.1% in 2013.
Rbee Solar, PV monitoring with solar irradiance measurement. A number of technical solutions exist to provide performance measurement and monitoring for solar photovoltaic installations, differing according to data quality, compatibility with irradiance sensors as well as pricing.
