Analysis
Taiwan recorded 0.7525 terawatt-hours for annual change in primary energy from solar in 2025.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 60.8% on the previous year and up 134.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, annual change in primary energy from solar in Taiwan peaked at 2.55 terawatt-hours in 2022 and was at its lowest, 0 terawatt-hours, in 1966.
That places Taiwan 44th out of 77 countries with data for 2025, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
