Solar potential in the United States

Solar power in Missouri is capable of generating 42.7% of the electricity used in Missouri from rooftop solar panels totaling 28,300 MW.[1]

Net metering is available only during a billing period. Excess generation is credited at avoided cost rate, and lost if any remains after a year,[2] giving the state a B rating.[3]

Ikea installed a 1.28-MW solar array on its St. Louis store which was the largest rooftop installation in the state. It was completed in July of 2015.[4][5]
