Since a large part of New York’s renewable energy comes from onshore and offshore wind power, it is not as easy to find large-scale solar projects in the state. To make it easier for you, we compiled a list of the currently largest solar projects in New York. 1) Three projects totalling 940MW in Herkimer, […]
By the end of 2022, the cumulative installed solar PV capacity in the United States was at 19,502 MWp. In this article, our team presents the three largest solar projects in the United States as of July 2023. 1. Cooper Mountain Solar Facility (Boulder City, Nevada) The Copper Mountain Solar Facility is a 802MW photovoltaic […]
The state of Texas is steadily growing its solar power initiatives. While the state of California remains the number one producer of solar power in the US, Texas is a close second: In 2022, it had 17,247MW of cumulative installed capacity. In this article, we present the three currently largest solar farms in Texas, as […]
California is the US state most likely to be immediately associated with the sun. And suitably to that notion, solar power is booming in California. This comes as no surprise: Since the state has constant sun exposure all year round, it is the perfect location for building large-scale solar projects. The following three projects are […]
In Ohio, the development of utility-scale solar projects has rocketed drastically in the last few years. As of the first quarter of 2022, Ohio had 890MW of solar installed. A large percentage of that capacity has been installed since 2020. The state gets a 0.8% percentage of electricity from installed solar energy which is enough […]
Called the Sunshine State for a reason, Florida is an ideal location for solar development thanks to its 2900 average annual sunlight hours with an average of 5.67 peak sun hours daily. While Florida has little to no potential for conventional wind energy, solar energy is an abundant and profitable energy resource for the state. […]
Known as the Peach State, Georgia is the ideal area for the development of solar parks thanks to the many sunlight hours it gets in a year. There have been solar power booms in Georgia in the last decade with solar farms being developed and rising out of nowhere. 2021, Georgia ranked 9th in the […]
Solar energy has failed to penetrate the energy market in Pennsylvania energy to the extent that it has in other states: Solar power currently provides less than 1% of the state’s electricity. The growth of solar power in Pennsylvania is limited by the state’s low sun exposure. Nonetheless, it has potential for expansion: For example, […]
California produces more renewable energy than any other state in the United States. Renewable energy has more than tripled in the state since 2005. In 2018, California ranked first in the United States as a producer of electricity from solar, geothermal, and biomass resources. As of 2020, data from the California Energy commission showed that […]
