Solar energy is the fastest growing energy market worldwide, with solar photovoltaic technologies leading the sector. Three fourth of the global renewable energy comes from sunlight. Most countries on the earth are currently generating solar power. With the sector developing so intensively, solar power is likely to soon become the main supplier of electricity demand.

Every nation strives to have the largest solar PV station. Consequently, the number and the list of the top utility-scale PV plants is constantly changing and increasing. China, the United States, and India are the champions in this race due to the enormous number of sunny hours they have yearly. Some African, South American, and Middle Eastern nations, which also receive much solar radiation, are catching up with the leaders.
