Decommissioning to drive 23% of solar buildout in the 2040s
Original: Decommissioning to drive 23% of solar buildout in the 2040s, says Wood Mackenzie
Wood Mackenzie projects that replacing retired solar capacity will account for 23% of new solar buildout in the 2040s, marking a shift from pure capacity expansion to a market that includes repowering aging installations. The analysis highlights the growing role of decommissioning and site reuse as the first large generation of solar farms reaches the end of its operating life.
Why now: Wood Mackenzie's new forecast quantifies a coming structural shift in the solar market as early installations age out.
