The expansion of solar power reached a new record in 2024, according to a statement<\/a> from Swissolar. According to the industry association, systems with a total output of 1,798 megawatts were installed, an increase of 10 per cent compared to the previous year. In total, 8170 megawatts were installed by the end of 2024. This generated 5961 gigawatt hours of electricity.<\/p>\n

Solar power accounted for 10.4 per cent of electricity demand in 2024. In the previous year, it was 8.25 per cent. Swissolar expects a share of 14 per cent by 2025. “Solar power is already a central component of our energy supply today and is well on its way to becoming the second mainstay of our electricity supply alongside hydropower,” said Matthias Egli, Managing Director of Swissolar, in the press release.<\/p>\n

Swissolar also emphasises the importance of solar power for the winter months. Around 2,400 gigawatt hours of solar power were generated between the beginning of October 2024 and mid-April 2025, around a third of annual production.<\/p>\n

The number of newly installed battery storage systems grew by 4 per cent in 2024. In single-family homes, 47 per cent of all solar installations were already equipped with battery storage systems, compared to just 42 per cent in the previous year. The total installed storage capacity at the end of 2024 was already 896 megawatt hours, enough to cover the consumption of 100,000 households for one day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
