4 FAQs about Solar power generation project conditions

Will solar power and wind power grow in 2027?

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.

Why is solar project development so difficult?

Additionally, solar project development requires substantial technical expertise in solar power generation technology, which creates barriers for new entrants. Federal, state, and local permitting and licensing requirements also create barriers to new entrants, who must pay related fees and learn to navigate these regulations (IBISWorld 2017).

What are the trends in solar PV & wind?

For solar PV, wind and bioenergy for power, deployment has been revised downwards. Solar PV accounts for over 70% of the absolute reduction, mainly from utility-scale projects, while offshore wind demonstrates the largest relative decline in growth over the forecast period, decreasing 27%.

What is the impact of solar PV & offshore wind on US growth?

Solar PV accounts for over 70% of the absolute reduction, mainly from utility-scale projects, while offshore wind demonstrates the largest relative decline in growth over the forecast period, decreasing 27%. The US forecast is revised down by almost 50% across all technologies except geothermal.
