Solar Panels Reduce CO2 Emissions More Per Acre Than Trees

Apr 18, 2025 | Benefits, News

Switching from natural gas to solar panels makes a big difference for the environment—each megawatt-hour of solar power produces about 976 pounds less CO₂ than natural gas. On a bigger scale, just one acre of solar panels can save between 175 and 198 metric tons of CO₂ every year. That’s way more effective than an acre of forest, which only soaks up about 0.84 metric tons of CO₂ annually.
