As of 2021 there is little use of in but much potential as part of the expansion of , as the country has few fossil fuel resources and imports much of its energy. At the end of 2019 there was just over 150MW produced by solar power.
[pdf] Short version: From 2024, it costs between $2,800 and $5,500 to ship a 20-foot container of solar panels around the world, depending on origin, destination, fuel prices, and demand. The 40-foot container, which is the one used for larger installations, ranges from $4,500 to $8,000.

[pdf] When Norway announced its off-grid solar storage initiative in 2022, critics chuckled. “Solar power in Oslo? That’s like opening a sunscreen shop in a cave!” But fast forward to 2025, and this 150MW facility now powers 20% of the city’s public transport during winter darkness [7].
[pdf] The average U.S. homeowner spends $2,000 on a solar inverter, but costs range from $1,000 to $3,000 depending on the model and the number of inverters. A solar inverter makes up about 10% of the total cost of your solar energy system.
[pdf] The North American region remains the largest market for solar containers, driven by a strong emphasis on renewable energy adoption. Asia-Pacific is emerging as the fastest-growing region, fueled by rapid urbanization and energy needs in developing countries.
