Last week, I wrote about the enormous growth in US manufacturing construction investment that has come from Joe Biden’s strong reshoring and new manufacturing policies (see graph above). Solar technology manufacturing is a part of that and the US Solar Market Insight Q4 2024 report released today by the US … [continued]
U.S. solar industry added 9.4 GW of new installation capacity in Q2 2024, but challenges persist that hinder the market’s full potential. ANAHEIM, California and WASHINGTON, D.C. — Solar module manufacturing capacity in the United States now exceeds 31 gigawatts (GW) — a nearly four-fold increase since the Inflation Reduction … [continued]
For the first time in history, solar accounts for over 50% of new electricity capacity added to the grid WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. solar industry added a record-shattering 32.4 gigawatts (GW) of new electric generating capacity in 2023, a 37% increase from the previous record set in 2021 and … [continued]
One of the interesting notes in the recently published US Solar Market Insight report is that the average global solar module price in the 3rd quarter of 2023 was down 30–40% from the average global solar module price in the 1st quarter of 2023. This is primarily due to supply–demand … [continued]
I recently wrote an article titled “Inflation Reduction Act To Give U.S. Solar Energy Industry A Much Needed Boost.” A few days later, the U.S. Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) published a press release that said pretty much the same thing. The title: “U.S. Solar Market Ready for Rebound After … [continued]
I just gave a presentation today to a class of renewable energy graduate students which mentioned solar PV’s tremendous growth over the past several years and its projected growth in the coming years. As the U.S. Solar Market Insight: Third Quarter 2012 report released today shows, the US Solar industry is indeed still … [continued]
A new report published yesterday by the Solar Energy Industry Association (SEIA) and GTM Research, U.S. Solar Market Insight: Q1 2011, indicates that the U.S. solar energy industry is continuing its record-setting growth. It is one of the fastest-growing sectors in the U.S. economy and is making noteworthy strides in both installed solar power capacity and solar manufacturing.
A new report out by the Solar Energy Industry Association (SEIA) and GTM Research, the inaugural U.S. Solar Market Insight™ report, finds that solar power is going to continue its rapid growth in the United States. 2010 has been the best year ever for solar power in the United States, but much … [continued]
