Will Texas Surpass California as King of Solar?

Aug 31, 2016 | News RoundupLess than a minute

http://www.greentechmedia.com/articles/read/Will-Texas-Surpass-California-as-King-of-Solar?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Issue:%202016-08-31%20Utility%20Dive%20Newsletter%20%5Bissue:7095%5D&utm_term=Utility%20Dive

Almost a decade ago, Texas surprised everyone by surpassing the king of wind, California. Texas now has over 18,000 megawatts of wind power installed, compared to just 6,100 megawatts or so for California, coming from behind and quickly tripling California’s installed capacity. Could this same story unfold for solar power in the coming decade?
