Rooftop solar could cover 20% of Norway's power demand

A Norwegian research team has found that Norway could produce 30 TWh of solar energy by adding solar to the roofs of existing buildings. The best conditions for solar in Norway were identified in coastal areas, particularly in the outer Oslofjord and along the Sørland coast.Rooftop solar could theoretically cover up to 20% of Norway's current electricity needs, according to research.
