Electron-phonon interaction induces variation of bandgaps with temperature, and zero-point motion renormalization (ZPR) even at 0K. Ignored in most calculations, ZPR has been evaluated recently for several materials, often relying on the adiabatic approximation, reasonably valid for materials without infrared (IR) activity, but eagerly applied to other materials. We present the first large-scale (29 materials) first-principles evaluation of ZPR beyond the adiabatic approximation [1]. For materials with light elements the ZPR is often larger than 0.3 and up to 1.1 eV: it is useless to go beyond G0W0 without including ZPR in such materials. For IR-active materials, global agreement with experimental data is obtained only with nonadiabatic effects. They even dominate ZPR for many materials. A generalized Fröhlich model that represents accurately nonadiabatic effects accounts for more than half the ZPR for a large set of materials.
