Solar energy is set to dominate new electric capacity additions in the U.S.
In the first half of 2025, U.S. developers added 12 GW of utility-scale solar capacity and plan to add another 21 GW, potentially making solar responsible for over half of the 64 GW of new capacity expected this year. The remaining additions will primarily come from battery storage, wind, and natural gas.
