The Czech Republic's new solar installed capacity in 2023 will be close to 1GW, a 69% increase from 2022. The Central European country's goal is to reduce total greenhouse gas emissions by 30% by 2030 based on 2005 levels.

According to the Czech Solar Energy Association, grid-connected residential rooftop solar installed capacity will increase by nearly 70% in 2023 compared with 2022.

Data shows that about 80,000 households in the country installed solar modules on their roofs last year, and the average size of household rooftop solar systems increased to 10.3kW, while the average size in 2022 will be 6.7kW. Among them, 92% also have batteries installed, with an average capacity of 12kWh.

In 2023, solar power generation capacity across all projects in the Czech Republic will reach nearly 3.5GW. There are more than 170,000 grid-connected solar projects, of which more than 150,000 are household rooftop solar projects.
