⚡New Report: U.S. developers added a massive 11 gigawatts (GW) of new utility-scale clean power capacity in a record-setting Q2, marking a 91% increase from Q2 2023. Our new #CleanPowerQuarterly Market Report showcases extraordinary growth and milestones across the U.S. clean power landscape.
Key milestones include:
☀️ For the first time, Texas surpassed California as the nation’s leading state for utility-scale solar capacity, with nearly 22 GW of operating solar power.
⚡️The U.S. energy storage sector exceeded 20 GW of total operational capacity.
🌊 Q2 set a record for the most offshore wind capacity under construction, with more than 4 GW of capacity being built.
🏡 Clean power total capacity now stands at 283 GW, which is enough energy to power 70 million homes.
“With rapidly growing demand and the need to make significant strides in decarbonizing our economy, the stakes are high,” said ACP CEO Jason Grumet in a new statement. “Our recent progress is encouraging, but we are not moving fast enough. ACP is committed to working with all stakeholders and policymakers to accelerate progress toward a secure, reliable, and clean energy future.”
The Clean Power Quarterly Market Report | Q2 2024 contains data and trends across the U.S. markets for land-based wind, offshore wind, solar, storage, and transmission activity.
