Report Highlights

• Good-paying jobs:ÌýClean energy factory workers earn 35% more than the average American worker.ÌýÌý
• Significant growth in 2025:Ìý70 new manufacturing facilities came online in 2025, bringing total to over 825 facilities across all 50 states with large clusters in Texas, Tennessee, Georgia,ÌýOhioÌýand North Carolina.ÌýÌýÌý
• Energizing communities: Every clean energy manufacturing job supports an additional four jobs across the broader U.S. economy – one additional job from driving upstream activities, and three additional jobs from household spending.Ìý
• Core power: More than 300 U.S. factories are producing the core components of clean energy projects, including wind blades, towers, nacelles, solar modules, and batteries.Ìý
• Cross-technology capacity:ÌýDomestic manufacturing capacity is now sufficient to meet U.S. demand for solar modules, battery modules, wind towers, and wind nacelles.Ìý
• LookingÌýinto 91AVÔ­´´â€™s crystal ball: By 2030, over 950 manufacturing facilities are expected to support 374,000 jobs.Ìý

91AVÔ­´´ partnered with leading developers, legal experts, and market innovators to explore the state of play and introduce a new standardized ITC transfer agreement form.Ìý

The new Tax Credit Transfer Agreement (TCTA) form is designed to standardize the legal documentation for these transactions, aiming to lower barriers to entry, reduce transaction costs, and shorten deal timelines, especially for first-time buyers and smaller sellers.

Key details about the TCTA form and the transferability market:

• The market for buying and selling clean-energy tax credits is growing fast: Tax credit transfers have scaled dramatically — from under $10 billion in 2023 to an estimated $40 billion in 2025 across various technologies like solar, wind, manufacturing, storage, and nuclear.
• 91AVÔ­´´ and industry partners have introduced the new Tax Credit Transfer Agreement (TCTA) to make deals more accessible to a broader range of market participants:Ìý Tax credit buyers and sellers will have a common starting place to transact transfer deals. 91AVÔ­´´â€™s goal in creating the form with its industry partners is to make the form broadly available and widely used similar to the ubiquitous ISDA framework for derivative transactions.
• This is just the first step — more standardized tools are coming:ÌýExperts expect similar templates for other credits like 45Y production tax credits and 45X manufacturing incentives further expanding the pool of potential tax equity investors. As these tools roll out, buying and selling credits should become easier, helping clean energy scale more quickly.ÌýÌý

A consistent, tested, and accepted template provides the confidence and guidance these new participants need to transact.

Report Highlights:ÌýÌý

• Over 90% of New Power:ÌýUtility-scale solar, wind, and energy storage accounted for 91% of all new power capacity connected to the U.S. grid, delivering over 50 gigawatts of new supply – enough to powerÌýroughly 7Ìýmillion homes.ÌýÌýÌýÌý
• $150 Billion Economic Driver:ÌýThe U.S. clean power industry contributed overÌý$150 billionÌýto the U.S. economy in 2025.Ìý
• Powering Rural America:ÌýCleanÌýpower’sÌý363 GW of operational projects generates approximatelyÌý$3 billionÌýannually in state and local tax revenue andÌý$3.2 billionÌýin land lease payments that provide reliable income to landowners.Ìý
• 1.4ÌýMillionÌýJobs Supported:ÌýIn 2025, the clean power industry directly employed more than 437,000 Americans – and broader economic activity around the clean energy sector means the industry supports more than 1.4 million jobs nationwide.Ìý
• Above-Average Wages:ÌýAmericans directly employed by the industry earned over $78,000 on average in 2025, 15% higher than the national average.ÌýÌý
• Non-Partisan Investment:ÌýClean power projects can be found in all 50 states and 89% of congressional districts. Notably, 79% of installed clean power capacity is in districts represented by Republicans.Ìý

As solar deployment scales, manufacturers are investing in facilities that produce everything from solar modules to mounting structures, electrical equipment, and specialty glass—anchoring a nationwide industrial ecosystem that supports reliable, affordable clean power.

Key highlights:

• 140+ operating solar manufacturing facilities across the U.S., with additional projects under construction and announced.
• 75,000+ American jobs supported, contributing more than $11.5 billion annually to U.S. GDP
• Stronger domestic supply chains for critical components, reducing reliance on imports and improving project delivery.
• Broad economic benefits for U.S. industries, including steel, glass, aluminum, and electrical equipment manufacturing

By producing critical clean energy infrastructure at home, solar manufacturing is reinforcing American industrial leadership while delivering long‑term economic and energy security for communities nationwide.
