Utility-scale solar in South Atlantic region dominated by North Carolina, Georgia">Utility-scale solar in South Atlantic region dominated by North Carolina, Georgia

(Thu, 17 Dec 2015) Most of the utility-scale solar PV electric generating capacity has been installed in the southwestern part of the country in states such as California and Arizona, which together accounted for 64% of the national total as of September 2015. The South Atlantic region has about 11% of the nation's 9,968 MW of utility-scale PV capacity, largely in North Carolina. Until now, Georgia has installed relatively little solar PV capacity, but the state plans to add more than 750 MW of utility-scale solar by the end of 2016.
