New solar installations in the U.S. dropped 16% to 20.2 gigawatts in 2022 from the prior year, largely because a ban on some Chinese goods limited the availability of panels, according to a market report

Utility-scale solar installations fell by about a third year-over year to 11.8 gigawatts, the lowest since before the COVID-19 pandemic, the report said. Still, last year's general upward revision was a result of more utility-scale projects coming online in the last quarter of 2022 than expected.
