4 Frequently Asked Questions about “The largest new solar energy generation capacity - RRR Renewable Projects (SA)”
How much solar capacity did the world add in 2025?
In the first six months of 2025, the world added 380 GW of new solar capacity — 64% higher than during the same period in 2024, when 232 GW were installed. In 2024, it took until September for global solar capacity additions to surpass 350 GW, while in 2025, the milestone was reached in June.
How many GW of solar power did the US install in 2024?
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The United States installed a record-breaking 50 gigawatts (GW) of new solar capacity in 2024, the largest single year of new capacity added to the grid by any energy technology in over two decades.
Which countries have added more solar power in 2022?
Asia has more than doubled its installed solar power since 2022, with 247.9 GW added in 2023 and 327.1 GW added in 2024. However, the largest capacity increases occurred in China (+278.0 GW) and India (+24.5 GW). South Korea followed, delivering a significant increase compared to previous years with 3.1 GW of added solar capacity.
Which states will add more solar capacity in 2025?
Texas (11.6 GW) and California (2.9 GW) will account for almost half of the new utility-scale solar capacity addition in 2025. We expect five other states (Indiana, Arizona, Michigan, Florida, and New York) each to account for more than 1 GW of added solar capacity in 2025 and collectively account for 7.8 GW of planned solar capacity additions.
