Bright US Midwest contrasts with cloudy coasts in 2024
2024 presented regional contrasts of solar irradiance across the United States. The Midwest enjoyed exceptional conditions with irradiance up to 10% above normal across the year, while areas along the Gulf Coast and much of the West Coast experienced slightly
below-average sunshine. According to analysis using the Solcast API, ERCOT and PJM both saw better capacity-adjusted performance through the year compared to long-term trends, whilst CAISO performed slightly below average. However as solar capacity increases
year on year, this analysis is based just on the weather impacts to current capacity.
The Midwest’s solar performance stood out in 2024, with states such as Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa, and Kansas experiencing solar irradiance 10% above average. Adjacent areas, including Michigan to Idaho, the Great Plains, and western Texas, also saw irradiance levels up to 5% above normal. Despite seeing some variation through the year, consistently clear conditions, in particular a 20%+ anomaly in October, contributed to strong annual performance for solar assets in the Midwest.
These regions coincided with areas severely affected by drought conditions, which likely contributed to the reduced cloud cover and higher sunshine levels. This solar surge translated into higher production for regional grids, with ERCOT achieving a 2.7% increase in capacity-normalized solar production and PJM recording a 4% rise compared to average values.
