America’s electricity demand is growing again and U.S. businesses are turning to solar.  According to SEIA’s 2024 Solar Means Business report, American companies have installed nearly 40 GW of onsite and off-site solar. Why? Because it’s good for their bottom line.  The flexibility and dispatchability of solar + storage make it ideal for a wide range of commercial applications and, at the end of the day, solar is the most cost-effective way to produce energy in human history.  
 
SEIA President and CEO Abby Hopper writes:  
“Some of the largest industrial and data operations in the world continue turning to solar and storage as a reliable, low-cost way to power their operations. These industry giants are investing in solar through a diverse range of applications, including onsite and off-site installations, on carports, paired with storage, or even as an anchor tenant for a community solar project.”
