Solar is #2 in Sourcing Electricity (with graphs to prove it!)

         Recurrent Energy CEO and Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) Chairman Arno Harris observed and seen that solar power capacity has been increasing in 2013 than any other electric power source, other than one of natural gas. By 2016, it perhaps may also be claimed that solar power, from this increasing rate of growth in society today, will be the #1 source for electricity.
        This solar power energy source has exponentially grew to be an outstanding presence in society today for a few years back, solar power was very costly as well as not being existent in many areas across the United States. However, as it is noted in a SEIA press release, data is extracted below to provide the analyzing trends in the U.S. solar market today.

From the statistics shown above, photovoltaic installations have grew 76% over time in 2011 to total 3,313 megawatts in 2012 (estimating market value of $11.5 billion)
Above is shown a graph with U.S. states increasing the numbers of photovoltaic installations from 2011 to 2012
