58.1 GW across 289 projects, 75% of it solar, wind and batteries

  • Solar 30.2 GW
  • Batteries 10.1 GW
  • Wind 3.3 GW
  • Gas + other 14.5 GW

2.8M homes’ worth of clean energy from solar and wind projects that already have grid agreements

Prices: EIA, residential, January–August 2026 vs. 2025. Extra cost: the state’s 2024 average household use times the price increase; actual bills vary. Queue: Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and GridTracker (CC BY 4.0), end of 2025. Projects are counted where they would be built, their power may serve other states, and most projects in the queue never get built. Homes’ worth is a year’s electricity, not around-the-clock supply.

The Grain Belt Express line, which would deliver Plains wind and solar power to Indiana, has been in development since about 2010.
