Solar energy is one form of electricity generation that is growing in the United States, yet we do not have the economy of scale in manufacturing solar systems to meet supply and demand for industry and consumers. Solar energy accounted for 3.9 percent of total electricity generation in 2021 compared to 0.7 percent in 2014. Currently, domestic solar production is sold out for the next 2 to 3 years.
