THREE SIXTY SOLAR INSPIRED BY RECENT EXCITING US SOLAR INDUSTRY REPORT

Three Sixty Solar Ltd. is pleased by recent outlook reports from the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) and Wood Mackenzie. The positive outlook holds the potential for increased interest and impact for Three Sixty Solar.

Key points:

  • United States solar industry installed 6.1 gigawatts (GW) of solar capacity and had its best first quarter in history.
  • The record quarter was driven in large part by supply chain challenges abating and delayed solar projects moving forward.
  • Solar market predicted to triple in size over the next five years, bringing total installed solar capacity to 378 GW (gigawatts) by 2028.
  • Surge in demand from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), propels module manufacturing outlook from current 60 GW by 2026.
  • Sixteen GW of module manufacturing facilities are under construction as of the end of Q1 2023.

Despite rising interest rates and an uncertain economy, residential solar installed 1.6 GW of solar capacity in Q1 2023, a 30-per-cent increase from Q1 2022. The residential solar segment is predicted to add 36 GW of solar by 2028, growing at an average annual rate of 6 per cent.

The commercial solar market enjoyed a record first quarter, with 391 MW installed, on track for 12 per cent growth in 2023.

Florida was the top solar state in Q1 2023 with 1.46 GW of utility-scale solar installations representing over 70-per-cent greater solar capacity in Q1 than the next highest state, California.

Largely due to these recent installations, the solar industry accounted for 54 per cent of all new electricity-generating capacity added to the United States grid in Q1.

Three Sixty Solar's chief executive officer, Brian Roth, states: "The landmark Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) holds great growth potential for the U.S. solar industry as a whole. The law contains new credits that can be used in conjunction with the solar Investment Tax Credit, like the domestic content, energy communities, recent clarity form the U.S. administration will help drive solar and storage investment in underserved communities. The IRA has already begun to unlock new market potential across the USA and this demand is proving instrumental in driving supply chain relief. All in all, the conditions are aligning for increased demand at a time where increased visibility and marketing our solar tower configuration should garner a meaningful percentage of new project interest. With this in mind, we look forward to growing our market penetration as we build our sector growth and shareholder value."

With notes and statistics from SEIA news June 8, 2023

The company announces it has granted 67,500 restricted share units (RSUs) to two consultants of the company, with each RSU exercisable for one common share of the company. Fifty per cent of the RSUs vest in 15 days and 50 per cent of the RSUs vest in 45 days.
