Solar power in Wyoming has the potential to generate 72 million MWh/yr.
Wyoming used 12 million MWh in 1999.
Net metering is available to all consumers generating up to 25 kW.[1] The state has an installed capacity of 146 MW as of 2022.
The 92MW Sweetwater Solar project near
Green River came online as the first utility-scale solar farm in Wyoming in December 2018.[3][4] Additional projects are in advanced stages of development to be located near
Kemmerer as the region's economy transitions from a scheduled closure of the Naugton coal plant.[5][6]
