(Reuters) - The U.S. is estimated to have added 6.4 gigawatts (GW) of small-scale solar capacity in 2022, the most ever in a single year, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said on Monday.
The capacity of small-scale solar increased from 7.3 GW in 2014, to 39.5 GW by 2022, the statistical arm of the U.S. Department of Energy said.
Small-scale solar - also called distributed solar or rooftop solar, refers to solar-power systems with 1 megawatt (MW) of capacity or less, and accounted for about one-third of the nation's total solar capacity.

Hurricane Lee continued to churn in the Atlantic Ocean over the weekend, sitting as a Category 2 storm as of this writing, located a few hundred miles north of Puerto Rico. The storm reached Category 5 status late last week, losing intensity as it encountered significant wind shear, which disrupted the system's circulation.
Lee is currently headed toward the US Southeast; models predict it will strengthen back into a Category 4 hurricane but also turn northward well short of the mainland sometime around Wednesday. Meteorologists say whether the storm will make landfall along the upper US east coast depends upon a range of factors, including whether an incoming high-pressure ridge will nudge the system in a particular direction.
