“According to the Energy Information Administration (US DoE), the world produced 16,400 billion kWh of electricity in 2004, and that figure is growing at 3.2 % a year since 1994. If we extrapolate to 2006 at 4 % growth then the total electricity production was an estimated 17,950 billion kWh. Photovoltaic power consists of only about 0.6 % of the annual growth in electricity capacity. It seems minute, and it is, for now. However, solar production hasn’t been growing at 3.2% per year. It has, in fact, been growing at 33 % per annum for the last decade, and it’s expected to continue that trend for the immediate future.” 905/15/07)
