Photovoltaic Solar Power: United States

This report forecasts for 2020 to 2024 US utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) generating capacity and generating capacity net additions in watts. Generating capacity and generating capacity net additions are segmented by technology in terms of crystalline silicon (c-Si), and thin-film and other technologies.

To illustrate historical trends, total generating capacity, generating capacity net additions, and the various segments are provided in annual series from 2009 to 2019.

Residential and other non-utility-scale markets are excluded from the scope of this report. See Solar Roofing in the US for those products that serve as a structure's primary roofing material while also producing solar-generated electricity.

Key macroeconomic indicators are also provided with quantified trends. Other various topics, including profiles of pertinent leading companies, are covered in this report. A full outline of report items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
