Solar Energy Production Hit a Record High in 2016, So What’s Wrong With Solar Stocks?

GTM Research recently reported that its upcoming U.S. Solar Market Insight Report done with the Solar Energy Industries Association will reveal a 95% jump in installations last year to 14.6 GW. To put that number into perspective, that’s enough solar to power 2.4 million homes in the U.S. On top of the huge installation numbers, solar accounted for 39% of all new electricity installed in 2016, a record for the industry.
