This year, massive solar farms, offshore wind turbines, and grid-scale energy storage systems will join the power grid. . We expect 63 gigawatts (GW) of new utility-scale electric-generating capacity to be added to the U. This amount represents an almost 30% increase from 2024 when 48. If playback doesn't begin shortly, try. . Solar and wind accounted for 93% of new U. electricity capacity additions in November 2025, making solar PV the leading new source of electricity for 27 consecutive months, according to a review of FERC data by the SUN DAY Campaign. Of that percentage, solar was 72% of new generating capacity. . At the forefront of this transformation are hybrid energy systems, which ingeniously combine solar, wind, and energy storage technologies.
