Power by development stage

Aggregated facility power across facilities that state one, kept strictly separate by stage — planned and construction capacity is never blended into what is in service.

Under construction: 122.9 GW

How often a power figure is stated, by stage

Under construction · 345 of 556: 62%
Planned · 614 of 996

Projects under construction or planned are announced with a capacity far more often than facilities already in service, where many operators publish a location and a building but no megawatt figure.

Reach by country

The ten leading markets by facility count. Every one of the 169 covered countries has its own page with cities, counts and development stages.

Attribute availability

Attributes are grouped into families of complementary fields: a facility that states its whitespace but not its gross building area still has a floor-area figure, so the family is counted when any member is stated. Where a campus states a figure, the buildings inside it are credited with it as well. Every facility also carries its name, operator, city, country and development stage.

Public disclosure varies by operator and market. A value the public record does not state is left absent and is never converted to zero; the share of facilities stating each family grows as monthly source checks land. The year family is not counted in the at-least figures.
