During Q1 2024, 11 GW of new solar module manufacturing capacity came online in the U.S., per the U.S. Solar Market Insight Q2 2024 report released by the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) and Wood Mackenzie.
The report adds that total domestic solar module manufacturing capacity now exceeds 26 GW annually, with the industry also installing 11.8 GW of new solar capacity during the quarter, bringing total domestic capacity to 200 GW.
“This quarter proves that new federal investments in clean energy are revitalizing American manufacturing and strengthening our nation’s energy economy,” said SEIA president and CEO Abigail Ross Hopper. “Whether it’s a billion-dollar investment in a nearby solar project or a new manufacturing plant employing hundreds of local workers, the solar and storage industry is uplifting communities in every state across this country.”
Massive growth in the Utility-scale market growth drove solar deployment figures as the segment added nearly 10 GW of new capacity in Q1. The report also states that the U.S. added 40 GW of new solar capacity last year.
The residential solar segment is feeling the full weight of policy changes in California and experienced its worst quarter in two years. The commercial and community solar markets remained steady year-over-year.

Are There Any Trump Voters Who Regret Their Choices?
For those who struggle with elementary school arithmetic, Trump won the election (50%+ approval) out of more than 150 million votes cast, and now his approval rating is in the low 30s.
That’s ~30 million voters who regret their choices, out of the common American.
Add in the Tucker Carlsons of the world.

Let’s Answer the Question Here
Absolutely.
It must be done, because our country is home to some hateful morons who want to see honest, hardworking, taxpaying people with brown skin deported, and their families torn apart.
It wasn’t the American way until recently, but it sure is now.
