We expect the combined share of generation from solar power and wind power to rise from about 18% in 2025 to about 21% in 2027. In our STEO forecast, utility-scale solar is the fastest-growing source of electricity generation in the United States, increasing from 290 BkWh in 2025 to 424 BkWh by 2027.
The power station, China's first large-scale grid-parity solar power project, provides affordable, clean energy to thousands of households, marking a new era of grid-parity for the domestic solar industry. The Golmud Solar Project can power 630,000 urban and rural households.
Almost 70 gigawatts (GW) of new solar generating capacity projects are scheduled to come online in 2026 and 2027, which represents a 49% increase in U.S. solar operating capacity compared with the end of 2025. Much of the utility-scale solar generation capacity additions will come online in Texas.
In 2021, 53 GW of solar power capacity was added in China—40% of the global total. 47 At year end, total solar power capacity reached 307 GW. 48 In the first half of 2022, roughly 31 GW of solar power were added to the grid in China. 49 China also leads the world in solar manufacturing, as it has for many years.
