HOME / Current status of solar power generation industry in the United States - CAPTURED ENERGY SOLAR (PTY) LTDInstalled solar capacity in the U.S. now totals about 220 GW, enough to provide over 7% of the nation's electricity. This continues a decade-long trend of rapid growth in solar power. Battery storage nearly doubled in 2024, with total installed capacity reaching almost 29 GW — and projected to grow another 47% in 2025.
EIA reported that the United States installed 36.2 GWac of PV in 2024—up 34% y/y. SEIA reported that the United installed 50.0 GWdc of PV in 2024—up 21% y/y. At the end of 2024, solar was the second-largest source of U.S. generation capacity, though still a growing percentage of the U.S. electric generation mix.
Each quarter, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory conducts the Quarterly Solar Industry Update, a presentation of technical trends within the solar industry.
Owing to reduced deployment costs and government policies aimed at decarbonizing the U.S. energy sector, the solar energy sector in the United States has seen significant growth in recent years. Various actors, from key businesses to state governments, are driving growth in an industry that shows no signs of slowing down.
2. Introduction The US solar industry installed 7.5 gigawatts-direct current (GWdc) of capacity in the second quarter of 2025, a 24% decline from Q2 2024 and a 28% decrease compared
