Solar accounted for 58% of all new electricity-generating capacity added to the US grid through the third quarter of 2025, with more than 30 GW installed. Solar and storage, combined,
Solar, wind, and batteries are set to supply virtually all net new US generating capacity in 2026, according to the latest EIA data.
Almost 70 gigawatts (GW) of new solar generating capacity projects are scheduled to come online in 2026 and 2027, which represents a 49% increase in U.S. solar operating capacity
In the first nine months of 2025, more than three-quarters of the electrical generating capacity added in the United States was solar power, according to new data published by the
In 2024, 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 2025, with 32.5 GW of new utility
Utility-scale solar capacity reached 128.6 GW in March 2025, growing from 96.9 GW in March 2024, while small-scale solar, projects of 1 MW or less, reached 55.7 GW in March 2025,
In the first half of 2025, solar and wind together accounted for 91% of all new U.S. power generating capacity, continuing solar''s dominance as the largest source of new electricity on the grid.
According to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), developers plan to add 64 gigawatts (GW) of new utility-scale capacity in 2025, surpassing the previous record of 58 GW set in
Solar has become the largest renewable source of installed power capacity in the United States, surpassing wind after 27 consecutive months as the leading source of new grid additions,
Newly published data from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), reviewed by the SUN DAY Campaign, reveal that solar accounted for over 75% of US electrical generating
Empa Solar Energy Europe is a leading energy storage equipment manufacturer and integrator based in Poland, serving the European market.
