4 Frequently Asked Questions about "GEM invests in wind and photovoltaic power"

What is GEM's global solar power tracker?

GEM's Global Solar Power Tracker and Global Wind Power Tracker include all projects that have been announced, entered pre-construction, or are currently under construction for solar capacity over 1 megawatts (MW) and utility-scale wind capacity over 10 MW.

How many GW of solar power does gem track?

Solar additions first include the total amount of solar in GEM's Global Solar Power Tracker (228 GW). The central government reported 392 GW of operating solar, implying there is 164 GW (392-228 = 164) of operating solar capacity in addition to the 228 GW that GEM tracks at the project-level.

How much wind power does Gem have?

The central government reported 365 GW of operating wind power capacity, so there is an addition 55 GW (361-310 = 55) of operating wind capacity in addition to the amount that GEM has cataloged at the project-level. On top of that we add the total prospective wind capacity in the Global Wind Power Tracker (371 GW).

Where can I find solar and wind data?

The data is gathered from Global Energy Monitor's Global Solar Power Tracker and Global Wind Power Tracker, specifically the May 2023 versions. The January 2023 solar and wind datasets are available for download here (solar) and here (wind) under a creative commons license. The following terms are used throughout the text:
