The solar tax credits were originally enacted in the 2005 and have created unprecedented growth across the United States where the amount of
solar electric capacity installed in 2007 was double that installed in 2006.
(EIA reports
installed electric capacity data in alternating current terms, which are typically 10 % to 30 % lower than the direct current capacities sometimes reported for PV systems.)
Wind power has recently represented one of the largest new sources
of electric capacity additions in the United States, though a considerable drop in wind energy's contribution occurred in 2010.
EIA collects
electric capacity data in MWAC, the type of electricity used in homes and on the grid, and which is produced by non-PV generators.

Solar power might be an undeniable part of our future — the industry created double the amount of jobs as coal did last year and accounts for nearly 40 % of new
electric capacity added to the grid, more than wind or even natural gas — but SolarCity itself isn't.
Driven by an explosion in photovoltaics, the U.S. solar sector has emerged «from a relatively small contributor to the nation's
total electric capacity into a one of comparative significance,» the Energy Information Administration reported this week in its latest Electricity Monthly Update.
ComEd and Ameren Illinois are offering rebates of $ 250 / kW for smart inverters for PV systems for nonresidential Rate DS - 3 customers, defined as 100

Improvements include a new lobby, new elevator cabs, an upgraded HVAC system,
expanded electric capacity and fiber - optic connectivity.
«The top five states for
solar electric capacity installed in 2012 were California (becoming the first state to install over 1,000 MW in a single year), Arizona, New Jersey, Nevada and North Carolina, while the leaders in cumulative solar capacity installed through 2012 were California, Arizona, New Jersey, Nevada and Colorado.»
If the rule manages to reduce CO2 emissions by 15 %, then it will have made exactly no measureable impact on the total amount of CO2 that is emitted each year, but it will do so at a significant impact on the
installed electric capacity of the United States.
Additionally, our sites feature up to 100MW
of electric capacity and 1GB / sec of data connectivity — enough to support a Tier 1 data center, and 3 million gallons of water flow per day — enough to accommodate our thriving food and beverage industry.
«At over 20 GW of installed solar
electric capacity, we now have enough solar in the U.S. to power 4.6 million homes, reducing harmful carbon emissions by more than 25 million metric tons a year.
In 2007, after only one year of implementation, the ITC led to the doubling of installed solar
electric capacity.

the electric capacity in nuclear, solar, hydro, combined cycle, etc to replace the missing coal fired plants.
As we covered previously, working with China, Saudi Arabia will spend more than $ 100 billion to build 16 nuclear energy plants within the next few years, as part of ramping up
its electric capacity.
As of the third quarter of 2014, more than 17,500 megawatts of cumulative solar
electric capacity are operating in the United States, which is enough to power more than 3.5 million average American homes, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association.
Completed in 2013 by Duke Energy and SunEnergy1, this photovoltaic project has enough
electric capacity to power over 1,235 homes.
It is significant that both projects are in competitive wholesale markets where they can sell services such as frequency regulation, peak load shaving, or
electric capacity (except in Texas, where the absence of a capacity market takes that revenue opportunity off the table).
Completed in 2011 by Obsidian Finance Group, this photovoltaic project has enough
electric capacity to power over 500 homes.
I was doing work on how Europeans had manage to back out out of heating and utilities, and found out about a lot of
both electric capacity and home heating equipment that could use two or even three fuels (Yes, Swedish home boilers using wood, oil and electricity!).
The most striking similarity between these two disparate nations is that both are blessed with great hydro -
electric capacity.
