Norway''s 31 GW Solar PV Potential: Integrating Rooftop Power
Norway''s eastern region, including the capital city of Oslo, showed the highest potential for solar PV installations. However, the research goes beyond these technical
Source:Synlig.no A new study has revealed that Norway's buildings could generate enough solar energy to meet nearly half of the country's annual electricity demand.
Snow, cold and hardly any sun for four months of the year: at first glance, Norway might not seem like the ideal place for a prospering solar energy industry. Nevertheless, Norway is making great strides in developing the technology, materials and solutions needed to make use of the largest energy source in our solar system.
The findings suggest that while the technical promise of solar energy in Norway is substantial, achieving it will require coordinated investment in infrastructure and policy. The report positions solar energy not just as a complementary force to Norway's hydropower dominance, but as a key player in the country's broader climate strategy.
Moreover, Norway has been one of the world's leading oil and gas nation for half a century, so Norwegian companies have learned how to get the most out of natural resources that are difficult to harvest. Here are some of the most important reasons why Norway has become a leading solar energy nation.
