According to the Energy Institute’s Statistical Review of World Energy, in 2023, Chile produced 9.4% of its primary energy from solar sources, the highest share in any country. When we look at electricity alone, solar produced 20% of the total.
These numbers seem really small compared to all the headlines I’ve seen over the years. I expected Chile to be closer to 99% if it’s the leading country in solar power.
