Southeast US utility Duke Energy has sold its distributed commercial generation portfolio – including solar PV developer REC Solar and all of its assets – to investment firm ArcLight Capital Partners. Financial details of the transaction were not disclosed.
2023 is on track to be a “record year” for solar PV installations in the US; through August, 8.4GW of utility-scale solar was installed, 50% more than the equivalent point in 2022. In those deployments, some trends have emerged.
The Asia Pacific (APAC) region is expected to invest US$3.3 trillion in power generation over the next decade, of which a quarter for solar alone, according to energy research company Wood Mackenzie.
