As of 2022, Scotland was home to 132,576 sites generating electricity from renewable sources. Between 2003 and 2022, the number of sites have increased. The large rise in number of sites can be directly related to the increase in the number of solar photovoltaic sites used privately and commercially. In 2021, there were 101,087 solar PV sites generating electricity in Scotland.
