The US Department of Energy's EIA forecasts 32. 5 GW (AC) of utility-scale solar capacity and just over 18 GW of energy storage will be deployed in 2025. 7 GW of wind generation and 4. . Solar, wind, and batteries are set to supply virtually all net new US generating capacity in 2026, according to EIA data reviewed by the SUN DAY Campaign, continuing their strong 2025 growth. EIA's latest monthly “Electric Power Monthly” report (with data through November 30, 2025), once again. . We expect 63 gigawatts (GW) of new utility-scale electric-generating capacity to be added to the U. power grid in 2025 in our latest Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory report. This amount represents an almost 30% increase from 2024 when 48. In 2024, energy storage became one of the most dynamic and consequential forces shaping the U. Electricity demand growth sped up and solar generation rose more quickly than gas to help meet it.
