What is interesting is to look at the breakdown in increases of non-hydro renewables:

Non-hydro renewables 149,652 +10.8%

- of which wind 104,801 +10.5%

- of which utility-scale solar 18,510 +33.6%

This equates to:

Type 2017 2018 difference

Non-hydro renewables 135,065 149,652 +14,587

- of which wind 94,842 104,801 +9,958

- of which utility-scale solar 13,854 18,510 +4,654

In other words, utility-scale solar is increasing faster, but it is still falling behind. The increase in wind power is almost the starting point of utility scale solar.

I would love to know how the residential scale solar numbers fit into this, but that isn't reported here.
