Re:World passes 1TW of solar installations by runnerup on Monday March 21, 2022 @06:54PM (#30760815)
At a fairly made up annual conversion of 1kW capacity to 750kWh actually produced per year, that’s an expected 750TWh of annual generation.

For comparison, the world currently consumes 24,000 TWh of electricity per year.

Indeed, at the current doubling rate we are less than a decade from producing more electricity from solar than today’s total electricity consumption.
