Solar photovoltaic energy: installed capacity by EU country

This graph shows the photovoltaic solar power installed in the European Union at the end of 2014, in megawatt-peaks (MWp). It shows that about 40,000 megawatts-PV solar power peaks have been installed in Germany and about 20 megawatt-peaks in Poland.

Supplementary notes

* Cumulative photovoltaic power installed in each country at the end of 2014

** One megawatt-peak (MWp) is one million watts-peak. The watt-peak is the unit measuring the power of photovoltaic panels, corresponding to the production of 1 watt of electricity under normal conditions for 1000 watts of luminous intensity per square meter at an ambient temperature of 25 ° C.
