6 FAQs about [Norway deployable solar arrays]

How many solar plants does Norway have?

Norway reached 597 MW of cumulative installed PV capacity spread across 28,170 solar plants at the end of December, according to new figures from the country's grid operator, Statnett, via its Elhub subsidiary. The country added about 300 MW of new PV installations in 2023. By comparison, it installed 152.7 MW in 2022 and 42.7 in 2021.

Do companies know about solar energy in Norway?

During interviews, some firms however, point out that they experience a limited attention and knowledge about PV. As a general indicator of attention to PV, we searched news media and parliamentary databases to observe the frequency of mentioning of solar energy compared to other renewable energy technologies in Norway.

What are the regulations for the Norwegian solar PV industry?

Following regulations for the Norwegian solar PV industry is critical. The supply companies acknowledge that any equipment that is delivered to Norway should be translated in a Scandinavian language with a Norwegian user manual for installation. Other regulations refer to CO2 footprint.

How much solar power will Norway have by 2040?

For example, the Norwegian water resources and energy directorate (NVE) has stated that PV contributing with 7TWh to the Norwegian electricity system by 2040 could be realistic (Lie-Brenna, 2021). The roadmap for the Norwegian PV industry suggests 2-4 TWh by 2030, provided 20-30% annual growth rates (FME-SUSOLTECH & Solenergiklyngen, 2020).

Are Norwegian solar panels eco-friendly?

The ecological footprint of solar panels made with materials from Norway is therefore extremely small. REC Solar’s factory in Fiskå in southwestern Norway has even been awarded a certificate for production of the world’s cleanest silicon. Not only is Norwegian silicon production the world’s cleanest, it is also the world’s most energy efficient.

How much solar power will Norway produce in 2025?

“With a current solar PV capacity of 600 MW and a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 154%, the projected solar power production for 2025 is estimated to reach approximately 2.4 GW,” he said. “The exponential growth underscores a promising trajectory, suggesting that Norway is poised to meet the envisioned solar capacity milestones.”
