Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)-- Solar power, along with wind energy, has become one of the staples of new-build power generation throughout the U.S. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a bump in the road for many U.S. solar projects. Two particular aspects of the pandemic have forced delays in both planned and underway projects.
First are supply chain disruptions. During the height of the pandemic, many countries went into lockdown mode, ceasing operations for the manufacturing of nonessential goods, including solar panels. Second, construction sites at solar facilities were forced to use fewer employees to ensure proper social distancing and maintain a healthy work environment. Industrial Info is tracking more than $5.2 billion in U.S. solar projects that have been affected by COVID-19. The West Coast market region, which includes California, Oregon and Washington, remains the most affected region in terms of projects, with slightly less than $2 billion worth.
