NEW YORK, Oct. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Demand for solar energy is on the rise around the world. In the U.S., the second quarter of 2021 has also seen impressive gains in implementation of solar. According to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) the U.S. installed 5.7 gigawatts (GWdc) of solar PV capacity in Q2 2021 to reach 108.7 GWdc of total installed capacity, enough to power 18.9 million American homes. The U.S. officially surpassed 3 million installations across all market segments, the vast majority of which are residential systems. Before the investment tax credit (ITC) fully phases down under current law, the solar industry is set to continue to break annual installation records every year for the next three years.

SEIA has also announced recently that it is increasing its goal for Solar+ Decade, aiming for solar to account for 30% of U.S. electricity generation by 2030. The organization's previous goal was 20% by 2030, and this revision aligns with the Biden administration's clean energy targets while accounting for the growing urgency to tackle climate change and reduce carbon emissions in the electricity sector. To meet 30% solar by 2030 and President Biden's clean energy goals, the solar industry must double its deployment pace. Without bold, long-term policy investments, solar will only account for 15% of electricity generation by 2030, far short of what is needed to reduce emissions and address climate change.
