Overview

• More than 1 million electric vehicles (EVs) were sold in the U.S. in 2023, setting a new record.
• Approximately 4.5 million U.S. households have installed rooftop solar systems to power their homes and EVs.
• Electricity production and transportation are the two largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S., but solar energy can offset some of the environmental impact of EVs.
• Several car manufacturers, including General Motors and Hyundai, are connecting customers with solar installation contractors.
• Federal incentives and state rebates are making both EVs and residential solar systems more affordable.
