Renewable Energy Statistics 2022 Summary

Core Content

This document presents IRENA Renewable Energy Statistics 2022, a comprehensive overview of renewable energy capacity, production, finance flows, and related indicators across the world. It includes data for multiple regions and countries, providing insights into the global status of renewable energy adoption and development.

Main Sections

The report is organized into several key sections:

1. Capacity and Production

• Total Renewable Energy: Covers all forms of renewable energy, including hydropower, wind, solar, bioenergy, and geothermal.
• Hydropower: Includes both total hydropower and renewable hydropower (with mixed plants).
• Wind Energy: Divided into onshore and offshore wind.
• Solar Energy: Includes solar photovoltaic and concentrated solar power.
• Bioenergy: Breaks down into solid biofuels, renewable waste, liquid biofuels, biogas, and other solid biofuels.
• Geothermal Energy: Provides data on geothermal capacity and production.
• Off-grid Capacity: Focuses on renewable energy capacity not connected to the main grid.

2. Other Indicators

• Renewable Energy Share of Electricity Capacity: Indicates the proportion of renewable energy in total electricity generating capacity.
• Renewable Energy Share of Electricity Production: Shows the contribution of renewable energy to total electricity production.

3. Renewable Energy Balances

• The document includes renewable energy balances for different regions, such as:
  • Countries A - F
  • Countries G - O
  • Countries P - Z
• These balances provide an overview of the production, consumption, and trade of renewable electricity.

4. Public Renewable Energy Finance Flows

• This section presents data on public investments in renewable energy by selected countries.
• Data is aggregated at the country and technology level, with figures in USD million.
• Includes information on the source of the data (official or unofficial) and whether it was estimated by IRENA.

Key Information

• Data Sources: The statistics are compiled from various sources, including:
  • IRENA questionnaire
  • Official statistics from national statistical offices
  • Industry association reports
  • International organizations like IEA, Eurostat, and OECD
  • Publicly available reports and news articles
• Data Presentation:
  • Capacity is measured in megawatts (MW).
  • Production is measured in gigawatt-hours (GWh).
  • All figures are rounded to the nearest MW/GWh, with values between 0 and 0.5 shown as 0.
• Notes on Data:
  • The letter "o" indicates data from official sources.
  • The letter "u" indicates data from unofficial sources.
  • The letter "e" indicates data that has been estimated by IRENA.
• Disclaimer:
  • The data is provided "as is".
  • IRENA does not provide any warranty or guarantee for the accuracy of the data.
