Clean Energy Trade Benchmark

The clean energy manufacturing trade flow benchmark provides a snapshot of clean energy trade activity across the supply chain. Trade connects the global community and is a significant component of Gross Domestic Product in many economies.

Click on each of the clean energy technologies to view the dynamic trade flow (chord charts) connecting economies that manufacture that technology.

The chord charts show that PV modules and LED packages are most heavily traded, most likely because they are more easily shipped than the other end products. Wind turbines, due to the large size of their key components, are more typically manufactured near their point of use.
