In the US, solar is now at grid parity in about 15% of the nation's utility service territories.

The solar revolution is global and its explosive growth is rooted firmly in the sound foundation of falling costs.  Indeed, solar has reached the tipping point of providing power at lower prices than the grid in about half the world.  Truly amazing!
