To study America’s growing renewable electricity capacity and generation, authors analyzed WeatherPower data from 2022 and compared the findings to data from 2021. This report and supplementary data show: where solar and wind capacity increased in 2022, and by how much, which states were the biggest producers of solar and wind energy in 2022 and what this means for the progress toward renewable energy goals.

According to the latest data released by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), 2020 witnessed more than 260 GW of renewable capacity additions globally. These massive capacity additions have exceeded the 2019 installations by roughly 50 per cent despite the slowdowns on account of the covid-19 pandemic. In terms of total installed renewable power capacity worldwide, there has been a 10.3 per cent rise when compared to 2019.
