Ratio of PV panel coverage to Japan’s total land

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.
