“In the 12 months ending April 2025, solar generated 83.1 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity, compared to 81.6 TWh from natural gas.”

“Nationally, solar generation continues to climb. In April, solar supplied 10.64% of U.S. electricity for the month (marking the first time the country crossed the 10% mark) and contributed 7.35% of generation over the rolling 12 months. California, by comparison, produced 42% of its electricity from solar at its seasonal peak in April, with May expected to push that figure even higher.”

Good 'ol CA, long-time nation-leader.

    Just from a quick search,

    Legislation passed in July 2025, known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” affects the Residential Clean Energy Credit.

    • The 30% credit will end on December 31, 2025, without a phase-out period.
    • Systems must be installed and commissioned by this date to receive the full credit.
    • This changes the previous plan under the Inflation Reduction Act, which included a gradual phase-down until 2034.
