Based on data from the EIA's January 2026 Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory, the U. 6 gigawatts of new utility-scale solar, batteries and wind in 2025.
A new project, Tehuacana Creek 1 Solar and BESS, adding 837 megawatts (MW) in Texas, is the largest solar photovoltaic project expected to come online in 2026; it will also offer an additional 418 MW in battery energy storage capacity.
In 2025, utility-scale solar power generated 295. 7 terawatt-hours (TWh) in the United States. Total solar generation that year, including estimated small-scale photovoltaic generation, was 388.
Grid-tied solar dominates the market for good reason: With 2025 system costs ranging from $2. 00 per watt installed and federal tax credits of 30% through 2032, grid-tied systems offer the fastest payback periods (6-10 years) and highest returns on investment without requiring.
Typical cost range for a fully installed 10 kW solar system with battery storage in the United States is commonly between $25,000 and $70,000 before incentives.
This powerful visualization tool provides real-time access to detailed information about every major power generation facility in the United States, from massive nuclear plants to small-scale solar installations.
These systems are designed to store surplus energy generated by solar panels during the day for use when sunlight is unavailable, such as at night or during cloudy periods.
