Shares of companies within the broader industrial sector are trading higher, supported by broad market strength, after better-than-expected nonfarm payrolls data eased concerns about an imminent economic slowdown.

The world is about to drop a record $3.3 trillion into energy in 2025 &#8211; and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/solar">solar is stealing the spotlight</a>. According to the latest IEA <a href="https://www.iea.org/news/global-energy-investment-set-to-rise-to-3-3-trillion-in-2025-amid-economic-uncertainty-and-energy-security-concerns">report</a>, solar PV is attracting more capital than any other energy technology, as clean energy investment surges to $2.2 trillion, double that of fossil fuels.
At the heart of this surge is China, now the world's largest energy investor, and the U.S., which is rapidly becoming a clean energy superpower. Thanks to policy support and corporate demand—particularly from data centers and AI-hungry tech giants &#8211; solar manufacturing in the U.S. nearly <a href="https://www.iea.org/reports/world-energy-investment-2025/united-states">tripled</a> in 2024 to 42 GW. Combine that with grid bottlenecks and transformer shortages, and it&#8217;s clear that solar solutions, especially modular and scalable ones, are becoming vital.
So which stocks are best positioned to ride this trillion-dollar tailwind?
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Solar Stock Riding The Trillion Dollar Tailwind</h2>
First Solar Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>) is leading the charge with nearly <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/sectors/technology/solar/">half</a> the market cap weight among top solar names. With the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/FSLR/analyst-ratings">analyst consensus rating it a Buy</a> rating and a price target of $228.77 (vs. current $163.84), it&#8217;s the institutional favorite to benefit from U.S.-led domestic solar expansion.
Nextracker Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXT#NASDAQ">NXT</a>) has been quietly scorching the charts with a 46% YTD gain, thanks to its dominant solar tracking systems and strong demand from utility-scale projects. With a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NXT/analyst-ratings">consensus Buy rating</a> and resilient momentum, it&#8217;s the growth story in the group. The company makes up about 23% of the solar market.

Array Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARRY#NASDAQ">ARRY</a>) is also heating up, with a 9.79% YTD return. This <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/arry/analyst-ratings">Buy-rated</a> solar stock is also likely riding the same structural wave.
At the speculative end, VivoPower International PLC (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VVPR#NASDAQ">VVPR</a>) has gone parabolic with a 319.15% YTD rally, albeit off a tiny market cap base ($62.29 million) clearly a high-risk, high-reward bet for the bold.
Meanwhile, legacy solar names like Enphase Energy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENPH#NASDAQ">ENPH</a>) and SolarEdge Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEDG#NASDAQ">SEDG</a>) remain under pressure. Enphase, commanding over 15% market share, is down nearly 42.12% YTD as investors get wary of margin compression and the European slowdown.
SolarEdge has returned 19.86% to investors so far this year, and has a 2.82% hold on the market, signaling room to grow.
With 205 GW of advanced-stage solar projects waiting in the queue due to grid delays, the market is ripe for companies that can accelerate deployment and offer grid-friendly solutions. 
As billions flood into solar, the sun might finally shine on solar stocks again &#8211; investors just need to pick the right panel.

Record $3.3 Trillion Global Energy Investment: Which Solar Stocks Could Soak Up The Sun?

Shares of solar companies, including Sunrun, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RUN#NASDAQ">RUN</a>), SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEDG#NASDAQ">SEDG</a>), Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENPH#NASDAQ">ENPH</a>) and Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARRY#NASDAQ">ARRY</a>) tumbled in early trading as investors digested the consequences of President Donald Trump's sweeping budget and tax package dubbed &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45506863/trumps-big-beautiful-bill-advances-heres-who-wins-and-loses">One Big, Beautiful Bill</a>." 
What To Know: Republican representatives advanced a bill that included dramatic rollbacks of clean energy tax credits and incentives that had previously driven growth in the green energy sector.&nbsp;
The bill would end the 30% federal tax credit for residential solar installations and accelerate the phaseout of investment and production tax credits for utility-scale solar projects.&nbsp;
A new <a href="https://underthreat.seia.org/threat/">analysis released</a> by the Solar Energy Industries Association warns that the budget bill could trigger an immediate decline in solar and storage investments, potentially resulting in up to $220 billion in investment loss by 2030.

BMO Capital analyst Ameet Thakkar downgraded Sunrun stock on Thursday from Market Perform to Underperform and slashed the price target from $9 to $4 as the outlook for the solar industry dimmed.&nbsp;
Companies with a strong U.S. manufacturing base, like First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>), were less affected by the bill, which leaves manufacturing tax credits largely intact. 
Why It Matters: The so-called &#8220;One Big Beautiful Bill&#8221; threatens the solar industry with both the loss of direct incentives and the anticipated drop in demand for rooftop and utility-scale solar projects.&nbsp;
The bill now moves to the Senate, where lawmakers could propose changes. As the legislative process unfolds, the solar industry faces uncertainty and elevated risk.

Archer Aviation Posts Narrower-Than-Expected Loss, Joins Microvast, Intuitive Machines And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Tuesday

Clean energy stocks spiked on Tuesday, with First Solar Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>) jumping more than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/renewable-energy">20% during early trading</a>.
The rally came after House Republicans delivered a better-than-feared tax proposal for renewable energy incentives.
The market had braced for a potential gutting of clean energy provisions under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), but the House GOP's proposed tax legislation, while imposing several phaseouts and rollbacks, kept many of the core credits intact.
This drove a sector-wide relief rally that sent major solar names and exchange-traded funds sharply higher.
First Solar has rallied 35% over the past two days, putting it on track for the strongest 2-day rally since 2013. 
The Invesco Solar ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>) rose 6.5% Tuesday after a 4% rally on Monday, marking its best two-day performance in more than 12 months. The Invesco WilderHill Clean Energy ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PBW#NYSE">PBW</a>) followed suit, rising 3.4% Tuesday after a 5.1% surge on Monday.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What's Inside The GOP Tax Bill Proposal?</h3>
The legislation, up for a House Ways and Means Committee vote Tuesday afternoon, includes several revisions to clean energy tax credits but stops short of dismantling them.
Key changes include:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>25D residential solar tax credit (30%) ends for projects not installed by end-2025.</li>
<li>48E investment credit, used by residential and utility-scale solar, begins phasing out in 2029.</li>
<li>45X manufacturing credit ends after 2031, instead of phasing down in 2032.</li>
<li>45Y clean energy production credit changes qualification from "start of construction" to "placed in service" and phases down from 80% if placed in service during calendar year 2029, and then declines by 20% per year until reaching 0% in 2031.</li>
<li>Credit transferability was repealed, eliminating the ability to monetize credits by selling to large taxpayers</li>
<li>Additional cuts to funding, including $27 billion from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund</li>
</ul>
A crucial clause excludes 45X credit eligibility for firms receiving significant support from foreign entities of concern, defined by national security laws.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Manufacturers Seen As Primary Winners</h3>
Analysts at Goldman Sachs said the proposal is "not as negative as initially feared," particularly for domestic clean energy manufacturers.
&#8220;We believe the initial reaction to the proposed tax plan is relatively bullish [&#8230;] as we believe investors had been pricing in a severely bearish possible outcome – such as the immediate repeal of IRA – and the phase out looks rather measured,&#8221; the firm&#8217;s analyst Brian Lee, CFA, said.
Companies with high U.S. revenue exposure, such as Sunrun Inc., Shoals Technologies Group Inc., First Solar Inc., and Array Technologies Inc., stand to benefit the most, according to the expert.
For First Solar, the revision to the 45X credit is especially supportive, potentially contributing 75% of its 2026 earnings per share, according to Goldman estimates. The company's U.S.-based manufacturing footprint could also gain from the foreign-entity restrictions.
Conversely, residential-focused firms like Enphase Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENPH#NASDAQ">ENPH</a>) and SolarEdge Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEDG#NASDAQ">SEDG</a>) may face pressure from the removal of the 25D credit in 2026, which could hurt demand for solar loan and cash sale products.

Shares of electrical equipment companies are higher after the US and China agreed to a temporary reduction in most tariffs on each other's goods. A reduction in tariffs could alleviate some supply chain concerns and improve macro sentiment as well as demand visibility.

Shares of solar stocks are trading higher following a report suggesting Republican lawmakers support tax credits in former President Biden's Inflation Reduction Act legislation.
