he United Kingdom
leads European solar energy expansion to help renewables overtake output of
nuclear power as industry leaders hail ‘tipping point’ for the technology.
The Guardian says a record amount of solar power was added
to the world’s grids in 2014, pushing total cumulative capacity to 100 times
the level it was in 2000.
It reports that, “Around 40GW of solar power was installed
last year, meaning there is now a total of 178GW to meet world electricity
demand, prompting renewable energy associations to claim that a tipping point
has been reached that will allow rapid acceleration of the technology.”
