Figures are facts read from the publishers' own documents. The documents themselves, their text and design, stay under each publisher's terms; follow the source links for those.
How this measure is built
- Definition
- Annual production capacity for manufacturing solar photovoltaic modules.
- Measure
- One slice of Manufacturing capacity ( form: level, segment: solar pv module ) . Maximum annual volume of equipment or goods that manufacturing facilities can produce. 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.
