How this measure is built
- Definition
- The amount of renewable capacity currently in advanced stages of development that is waiting for a grid connection.
- Measure
- One slice of Electricity capacity ( counting rule: awaiting grid connection, form: level, segment: renewable ) . Maximum electrical output capacity of power installations. Region and period are columns on every record, not slices.
- Limitations
- Values are shown as published; StatOrigin does not revise, fill gaps or convert currencies.
- Verification
- Each value, unit, period and place was checked against its source evidence before publication. See the methodology and the corrections process.
