Solar Energy System is Installed in the U.S. every 4 Minutes

            Many things occur in the United States in a matter of 4 minutes. During that short time span, 30 babies are born, 4,080 Big Macs may be consumed, and 48,000 tons of carbon dioxide are being exhaled. As it also seems, the U.S. is currently installing one solar photovoltaic system every 4 minutes as well. If market growth continues steadily at its current pace, the American solar industry can install a solar system 1 minute and 20 seconds by 2016.
           There has been a drastic difference from 2006, when installers were only putting up one system every 80 minutes. Shayle Kann, Vice President of GTM Research, has conducting a study and produced documents of the accelerating speed of solar deployment in the charts below:

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
