Description (excerpt):

  • Solar Means Business tracks solar adoption at U.S. facilities by large corporations
  • This is the 5th annual edition of the report
    • Has expanded from 300 MW in 2012 to over 1 GW in 2016
  • Not a comprehensive look at corporate solar in the U.S., but focused on the largest adopters
    • Represents 16% of all non-residential, non-utility-scale solar PV capacity in the U.S.
  • We get our data from a mix of sources:
    • Directly from the companies themselves
    • From installers, with permission of the companies
    • From publicly available data sources such as press releases or state regulatory bodies
  • All data in this chart from SEIA 2016 Solar Means Business Report unless otherwise noted
