Usage

[edit]

Use this infobox for all pages with the title format "Solar power in X country" (e.g., Solar power in India) with information on solar power in a particular country. All of the information used is found or can be calculated from data in Solar power by country.

For all types of solar power and solar power plants, please use {{Photovoltaics}}.

This template provides key data on solar power in a given country.

Parameter Definition and Guidance
{{{country}}} The country in question. It must be a country for which a "Solar power in" page exists.
{{{capacity}}} Total installed nameplate capacity (in gigawatts).
{{{most_recent_year}}} The year for which the capacity data applies.
{{{generation}}} Total solar generation (in terawatt-hours).
{{{most_recent_year_generation}}} The year for which the generation data applies.
{{{capacity_capita}}} Installed capacity per capita (in watts). Ideally calculated as (capacity in watts) ÷ (population).
{{{most_recent_year_capita}}} The year for which the per capita data applies.
{{{share}}} Share of solar power in the national electricity grid (as a percentage).
{{{most_recent_year_share}}} The year for which the share data applies.
{{{rank}}} National rank of total solar capacity compared to other countries.
{{{most_recent_year_rank}}} The year for which the rank applies.
