Infinita e pulita: tutti i vantaggi dell'energia solare
Questo aumento conferma il cambiamento climatico in corso, ma sottolinea anche l'enorme potenziale dell'energia solare, una risorsa infinita che ...
Copernicus
Il 2023 ha segnato un'altra annata di crescita per l'energia solare. I dati raccolti da <anchor>Copernicus</anchor>, il programma europeo di osservazione satellitare della Terra mostrano che, l’anno scorso, il nostro continente ha ricevuto una quantità di radiazioni solari superiore alla media del 4,1%.

## Globe in 2023

The global context is given by the [Climate Indicators](https://climate.copernicus.eu/climate-indicators) for which data are available for the majority of the year. These indicators typically build on multi-source or community estimates, leading to a delay in producing final data records, and so not all indicators are covered here.
