Land-based wind projects are in demand in the U.S., while offshore wind is gaining traction in the U.K. and Europe. The latest projects incorporate next-generation solar and wind components as manufacturers expand their performance and efficiency to meet market demand.
In the U.S., more than 112 GW of large-scale solar projects are under construction or development, according to a database from the Solar Energy Industries Association. Most utility-scale and commercial solar projects slated to come online in the next few years have already secured an interconnection agreement or started construction.
