I think the important part is that the price has reached a level that incentivizes large scale installations.

Usage is going up and maybe that's attributable to more people shifting to electric cars.

We can certainly do better but claiming there is nothing to be proud of seems unnecessarily gloomy.

This is good news sure, but everyone else in the world, on average, is at more or less the same spot with about same growth rates, too. So there is no longer even an expectation that America is supposed to be the leader, and just not falling behind others is seen as a major achievement?

I completely understand you.

We accomplish this growth despite a lot of people not believing in global warming, despite having large corporations lobbying against renewables.

I am not sure why you are expecting the US to be a leader here. We are trailing other countries in many areas (healthcare, child mortality...) due to our political environment that makes positive change so difficult.
