US Renewable Energy Market: Q4 2025 Analysis
How will AI and energy growth impact renewable energy investing companies?
In the third quarter of 2025, renewable sources of energy (solar, wind, and battery storage) accounted for 90% of new generation capacity, continuing their dominance of new power sourcing.
What is the future of renewable energy?
As demand for battery storage surges and potential policy shifts loom later this year, understanding the market’s shifting landscape is crucial. We expect renewables will still account for most near-term capacity additions, along with natural gas additions and select nuclear restarts to help meet rising electricity demand.
Key insights reveal that while renewables currently dominate new capacity additions, AI-driven data centers are revitalizing interest in natural gas due to its ability to meet rising electricity demand. Simultaneously, rooftop solar installations are projected to decline further in 2026 following the expiration of homeowner tax credits. However, long-term prospects signal potential recovery due to increasing utility rates.
Our latest Q4 2025 U.S. Renewable Energy Pulse examines key trends shaping the sector, including capacity additions, component pricing, installations, and the competitive landscape.
