WASHINGTON, Aug. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Antoine M. Thompson, Executive Director of Greater Washington Region Clean Cities Coalition, released the following piece on the importance of electrifying school bus fleets:

Solar PV & Wind Power 2020

International Energy Agency Report

Solar PV capacity expansion continued to accelerate in the United States, the European Union and Latin America in 2020.

Solar PV capacity in the United States increased 45% in 2020 to reach 19 GW, breaking the 15 GW record of 2015. The main impetus for this acceleration was the planned phaseout of the production tax credit, although in the end the incentive was extended for another year and will continue to propel capacity deployment. Higher corporate demand through power purchase agreements, driven by declining costs and continued growth in residential and commercial markets, will also help increase PV deployment.

Onshore wind capacity additions in 2020 almost tripled in China and doubled in the United States

Developers in the United States rushed to complete their projects before the expiration of the production tax credit, which led to a record onshore wind deployment of almost 17 GW, nearly twice as much as in 2019. Although the tax credit scheme was extended for another year in December 2020, it is expected that capacity addition growth will be slower in upcoming years, as the number of projects eligible for full tax credits will be limited.
