According to the study published on 11 July 2019 by Swissolar, the association of solar energy professionals, 1.7 million square metres of new solar modules were installed in Switzerland last year, producing 271 megawatts of additional energy. For the association, this increase is due to the measures taken under the Energy Strategy 2050, which came into force at the beginning of 2018. However, although the share of solar energy is increasing in Switzerland, it nonetheless remains very low compared with other countries.
