EIA expects 62.8 GW to come online in 2024, led by solar, energy storage
Also, the pace of power plant retirements slowed in the first half of this year to 5.1 GW, down from 9.2 GW in the same period last year, the Energy Information Administration said.
The Energy Information Administration expects power plant developers and owners will add 62.8 GW this year in the United States, up 55% from 2023 when 40.4 GW came online, the agency said Monday.
Developers and power plant owners brought 20.2 GW online in the first six months this year, adding 3.6 GW, or 21%, more than in the same period last year, the EIA said. The agency expects another 42.6 GW will be added in the second half this year.
About 12 GW of utility-scale solar came online in the first half, accounting for 59% of all new capacity, according to the EIA. Texas and Florida made up 38% of U.S. solar additions, the agency said.
