Ratio of PV panel coverage to Japan’s total land
In the case of achieving 400 GW (JPEA 2050 Vision scenario), PV would cover ~1% of Japan’s total land area. Agrivoltaics (107 GW) would cover 7% of farmland while rooftop PV (228 GW) would occupy 10% of roof area. If installed in suitable locations, PV can be a major source of electricity supply.
