Didn’t expect that from the US. Greate news 🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅
You really want your mind blown? One of the largest solar, and I believe the largest wind producer is…. Texas
Makes sense, they are the second largest state.
Renewables, not including nuclear, overtook coal in 2022.
But the most recent statistics showed why wind and solar are on track in 2024 to exceed coal generation for an entire calendar year
…
EIA previously reported that renewable generation eclipsed coal in 2020 and 2022 and then repeated the feat in 2023. But those figures notably included other resources such as hydropower. Now wind and solar are posed to overtake coal on their own.
I wonder at what point will the renewables industry will start lobbying for itself the way oil and gas does. Where’s Big Wind? Where’s the country songs about heartland Working Joes working solar farms?
Big wind is all hot air.
