US Solar PV Installations Surpassed 6 GW In 2014 (Charts)
March 10th, 2015 by Joshua S Hill

GTM Research and the Solar Energy Industries Association have released their US Solar Market Insight, 2014 Year-in-Review report, and it was “another banner year” for the US solar PV industry, installing 6,021 MW of new capacity in 2014.

Installations were 30% up on 2013’s figures, “and more than 12 times the amount installed five years earlier,” GTM Research and SEIA wrote in their report, bringing the country’s cumulative PV total to 18.3 GW of solar PV, with another 2.2 GW of concentrating solar power (CSP).

Specifically, over 600,000 homes and businesses in the US are now running on-site solar, with nearly 200,000 of these being completed in 2014, and six US states are each home to more than 500 MW of operating solar capacity.
