Solar, battery storage to lead new U.S. generating capacity
In , generators added a record 30 GW of utility-scale solar to the U.S. grid, accounting for 61% of capacity additions last year. We expect this trend will continue in , with 32.5 GW
U.S. installs 14.5 GW of large-scale solar in the first half of
Solar represented 75% of grid capacity additions in the first half, followed distantly by wind and natural gas, said new data from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
5 Global Trends Driving the Rise of GW-Scale Solar in 35 Countries
Global solar installations have now surpassed 2.26 TW, with over 47% of capacity added in the past three years, the latest Snapshot of Global PV Markets report shows.
Wind and solar year in review
Global operating capacity increased by 14% in , as at least 240 gigawatts (GW) of utility-scale solar and wind came online. Despite their 45% share of global gross domestic product (GDP), G7 countries are
Global utility-scale solar additions hit 182 GW in
Wiki-Solar’s analysis finds that Asia contributed more than half of the growth in utility-scale projects in , with China and India holding the top two spots. The US market ranks second,
Spring Solar Industry Update
Reasons for the surge included declining module prices and increasing construction of renewable energy “megabases”—gigawatt-scale wind and solar projects sited in remote areas.
