Solar photovoltaic (pv) net news: according to the rocky mountain institute ( RMI) Commercial renewable energy center to the latest data, in 2018 the United States for purchasing solar power has reached 2. 8 gw, which was signed by the United States this year 6. 4 gw otc renewable energy as part of the contract.
this is not only far more than any other year, and according to the RMI data, 2018 volumes for purchasing solar year than all the others combined 1 gw. This is as an integral part of the vigorous development of renewable energy procurement.
