6 FAQs about [2025 Wind and Solar Power Generation]
Will solar power grow in 2025?
In our latest Short-Term Energy Outlook, we forecast that wind and solar energy will lead growth in U.S. power generation for the next two years. As a result of new solar projects coming on line this year, we forecast that U.S. solar power generation will grow 75% from 163 billion kilowatthours (kWh) in 2023 to 286 billion kWh in 2025.
Will wind and solar generate more electricity in 2022?
It’s this aspect of our STEO electricity generation forecast where most of the uncertainty lies. Wind and solar accounted for 14% of U.S. electricity generation in 2022. In our February Short-Term Energy Outlook, we forecast that wind and solar will rise slightly, accounting for 16% of total generation in 2023 and 18% in 2024.
Will wind power grow in 2023?
We expect that wind power generation will grow 11% from 430 billion kWh in 2023 to 476 billion kWh in 2025. In 2023, the U.S. electric power sector produced 4,017 billion kilowatthours (kWh) of electric power. Renewable sources—wind, solar, hydro, biomass, and geothermal—accounted for 22% of generation, or 874 billion kWh, last year.
Will renewable capacity meet 35% of global power generation by 2025?
Renewable capacity will meet 35% of global power generation by 2025, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). The organization also says electricity demand is forecast to grow by 3% a year over the next three years compared to 2022, with a third of global consumption in China.
