Solar and wind installations in the US could account for between 40% and 62% of total electricity generation by 2030, according to a report from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

The combined effects of the ongoing anti-dumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) tariff investigation and the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) curbed US solar deployments in 2022, according to a joint report from the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) and Wood Mackenzie.

US community solar deployment is expected to more than double over the next five years despite 2022 seeing a 16% decline year-on-year, as the sector is set to see benefits from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) taking hold.

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is set to boost investment into US renewable energy deployment and manufacturing from US$64 billion in 2022 to US$114 billion by 2031, according to research from Wood Mackenzie, though a mismatch between solar deployment demand and domestic manufacturing capacity may see the sector’s domestic profile lag behind.
