US Non-Residential Grid Connected PV Capacity to Expand Rapidly

The USA’s non-residential grid tied PV installations accounted for the majority of capacity in 2009. These installations include sites, such as government buildings, military installations, and retail stores. The large average size of these premises requires large installations and results in greater capacity additions. Both non-residential and residential installations are on the customer’s side of the meter and generate power used on-site. Whereas, utility installations are on the utility side of the meter and generate bulk power for the utility grid.
