Note: Due to the interconnected nature of the electricity grid, the fuel mix for in-state generation may differ from the fuel mix representative of in-state electricity consumption.

In particular, solar technologies have experienced considerable market growth in recent years. Greentech Media's Quarterly "Solar Market Insight" report is an excellent resource for accurate data on solar installations and capacity by state.
