"From crazy vision to 698 GW" - indeed, what a development. However, we head for new frontiers with total installed capacity of 75 TW in mid-century and 150-200 TW by end of the century - for a real Solar Civilisation. www.ise.fraunhofer.de/de/veroeffen... ; doi.org/10.1016/j.en...

From ‘crazy vision’ to 698 GW: How a bold solar forecast became too conservative
In 2012, our “300 GW/a PV initiative” (with @christianonre.bsky.social) set out a vision of a very ambitious global PV market by 2025. Reality has gone far beyond that ambition.

Eine „verrückte“ Vision wird mehr als doppelt so wahr
2012 u.a. mit @christianonre.bsky.social verbreitete„Burning Ambition“: 300 Gigawatt pro Jahr bis 2025! Heute wird diese einst „verrückt“ genannte Vision mit sagenhaften 698 Gigawatt sogar mehr als verdoppelt!
