In 2014, for the first time in history, each of the three major U.S. market segments–utility, commercial and residential–installed more than 1 GW of PV, according to SEIA and GTM Research. A new solar project was installed every 2.5 minutes in 2014, and nearly 645,000 U.S. homes and businesses have now gone solar. These are the Solar Power World Top Solar Contractors in the commercial market.
