Solar Power is on the Rise in Texas

Texas is known for doing everything big, and its solar growth is no exception. As energy demand rises with a growing population, solar continues to expand rapidly. The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) reports that in 2024, Texas ranked #1 nationwide for new solar installations, and in 2025, it ranked second only to California.1

SEIA also reports that nearly $58 billion has already been invested in Texas solar power, with projected capacity additions of 37,641 MW over the next five years.1

How Much Solar Energy Do Solar Panels in Texas Produce?

Many top solar panels available in 2025 produce about 390–460 watts of power. With intense sunlight exposure across Texas, solar panels can be highly productive. The average Texas solar installation offsets roughly 98% of a home's electricity needs.2

Because solar systems often last 25–30 years, the potential return on investment can be significant. Some homeowners who pay cash may save as much as $90,000 over 25 years.3
