Unbelievable solar PV numbers once more.
585 GW should be good for ~700 TWh/year. That means new solar alone can cover the full growth of global electricity demand now. And that together with wind, it can push down fossil electricity with its emissions, despite demand growth.

"Leaving #Intersolar. This industry is primal chaos, prices below $0.10/W, over a terawatt of manufacturing capacity chasing ~585 gigawatts of installation this year."
