How much solar energy does the Sahara desert use?

The solar energy received by the worldwide desert regions within 6 h is roughly estimated more than the energy consumed by humankind in a year . To put it another way, electricity produced by covering 1% of the area of the Sahara desert with solar thermal plants is enough for the world annual power consumption .

Can photovoltaics be efficient in the desert?

With photovoltaics, electricity is generated directly. To what extent photovoltaics can be efficient in the desert, I have already presented this in my analysis in detail in March 2019. Both the dark color (strong heating) of the solar cells, and the dust reduce the effectiveness of the solar systems. In addition, there are enormous O&M costs.

Can solar power be used in the Gobi Desert?

The Gobi desert covering China and Mongolia has an abundant solar energy potential and one of the best candidate sites for large scale PV power plants in the desert environment. PV electricity will be supplied to China and Mongolia mainly.
