Global primary energy use by source
Utility-scale solar is now the least-expensive source of new electricity across most of the world; module prices have fallen roughly 90% since 2010.
Solar photovoltaic module costs have collapsed by around 90% since 2010, making utility-scale solar the least-expensive new power source across most of the world. Renewables added a record share of new capacity in recent years while fossil generation's share of global primary energy keeps shrinking — the energy transition is no longer a forecast, it's underway.
