Solar power could provide energy for more than 1 billion people, creating
over 2 million jobs by 2020, and 26% of global energy needs by 2040, according
to the report "Solar Generation" released by the European Photovoltaic
Industry Association (EPIA) and
Greenpeace
in Berlin today.
The report shows that solar photovoltaics have the potential to make
a major contribution to both the future of secure global electricity supply,
and to help prevent dangerous climate change.
