  Absurdly low given 2023 had 1.15tw capacity.

  The report forecasts that global demand for solar modules will grow from 460 GW in 2023 to 674 GW in 2035

  Even more absurdly low. Likely to hit over 600gw this year.

  IEA has a history of projecting 3% growth per year every year even as we do 30+% growth.

  Stupid question, how much energy are we using today?

  Obviously now we should invest in energy storage, otherwise solar modules go just so far.
