The solar power capacity addition is projected to be around 43,000 MW worldwide in 2014 with China likely to lead the pack with a planned capacity of around 10,000 MW, according to a report by global consulting firm Mercom Capital Group.
India is expected to add about 1,800 MW of solar energy capacity next year.
The capacity additions are expected to be driven by many countries looking to increase their solar energy generation.
With China revising its solar installation goals, Mercom expects it to be around 10,500 MW in 2014. Solar energy installations in the U.S. are projected to touch 6,000 MW.
