Wood Mackenzie, a United States-based energy research and consultancy firm, in collaboration with the Coalition for Community Solar Access (CCSA), has reported a 36% year-over-year decline in US community solar installations during the first half of 2025, totaling 437 MW DC of new capacity. The contraction has been attributed to program delays in New York and Maine, federal policy changes under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, and slow transitions in Maryland, Massachusetts, and New Jersey. Nationally, community solar capacity is expected to contract 29% in 2025, although cumulative installations have reached 9.1 GW DC. Wood Mackenzie has downgraded its five-year outlook by 8%, while 9 GW DC of capacity remained under development and 1.4 GW DC under construction. Subscriber acquisition costs have decreased by 5%, corporate demand has lifted the commercial share to 53%, and the share serving low-to-moderate income subscribers has fallen to 9%.
