Potential FPV generation (GWh) by state for each FPV solar energy buildout scenario. Bar graphs show the share of terrestrial utility-scale solar generation, which was 1.7% in 2022 (brown), and share of utility-scale solar energy when including potential FPV generation (teal) in the Northeast. The axis is set relative to FPV production in the climate crisis scenario to highlight the sustainability trade-offs of FPV generation between scenarios. Electricity data for share of utility-scale solar energy for the Northeast originate from the EIA electricity data browser and reflect data as of 2022.
