2021 followed 2020 as another record-breaking year for deployment in the renewable energy sector, and experts say the trend will continue in 2022.
The Energy Information Administration ‘EIA’ has announced planned deployments for 21.5 GW of solar and 7.6 GW of wind in the U.S. in 2022, based on surveys of developers through October 2021. For utility-scale solar, that would surpass the estimated 15.5 GW of solar additions in 2021.
