In just Q1 2023, US solar marked an unprecedented milestone, installing a staggering 6.1 GWdc of capacity. It’s not just any record; it’s the industry’s most dynamic start to any year.
The driving force behind this unparalleled growth? Utility-scale solar installations, which surged by 66% compared to the first quarter of 2022. The US Energy Information Administration forecasts more than half of new US generating capacity in 2023 will be solar-powered.
As we set our sights on achieving 1TW solar capacity by 2035, our horizon is both promising and challenging. On one hand, we have IRA incentives, ambitious decarbonization targets, and a resurgence of US manufacturing. On the other, we face grid congestion, workforce dynamics, and supply chain intricacies. How do we harness these opportunities and navigate the headwinds to accelerate deployment?
