How much amount of solar energy is used in Mexico?

As of March 2021, Mexico had around 5.7 gigawatts (GW) of cumulative installed solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity. At present, this figure may vary according to new installations. Nevertheless, the country plans to significantly boost solar deployment as part of its long-term development plans for the sector. Solar energy has gained importance due to Mexico's advantageous natural resources; in particular, some areas exhibit high daily solar radiation that makes solar an attractive clean energy option. Moreover, government incentives have driven a surge in this market in recent years.
