Large-scale photovoltaic power plants ranking 201 - 250
"I have no doubt that we will be successful in
harnessing the sun's energy... If sunbeams were weapons of war,
we would have had solar energy centuries ago." (Sir George Porter)

or in Annual Review 2008 Extended Edition ...
World's largest photovoltaic power plants are presented in
the table below.
The list is divided into tables - each table includes 50 power plants. For each listed plant
basic data is available (power, country, location, basic description etc.). Currently list with
1000 large photovoltaic plants is available (peak power > 1.2 MWp). In the table you
may find different systems:
standalone, hybrid, distributed, building integrated etc. But only systems (or system)
which forms a unique photovoltaic power plant as a whole, are considered.
If some power plants are missing and should be included in this table, or if some entries in the table
should be modified, please send information to
.
Countries where large-scale (>1 MWp) power plants were put into service are (ranked by cumulative power capacity installed as at December 2009):
- Spain, Germany, USA,
Italy, South Korea, Czech Republic
- China, Portugal, Canada, France,
Franch overseas departments/Reunion, Belgium
- Japan, Greece, United Arab Emirates,
Netherlands, Switzerland
- Thailand, Bulgaria, India, Australia, the Philippines
The main source of information included in the table below are various
