United States Renewable Energy Potential Exceeds 100 Times Annual Electricity Consumption

The United States possesses an abundance of renewable energy resources capable of generating over 100 times the electricity consumed annually by Americans.* Despite this potential, the nation continues to heavily rely on fossil fuels for its energy needs. In response to this pressing issue, the Energy Innovation Summit is set to convene in San Francisco from June 12 to 14, 2024. This pivotal event will unite policymakers, innovators, and investors with the common goal of accelerating the transition away from fossil fuels towards clean energy solutions.

Statistics
In 2023, fossil fuels comprised 60% of US electricity generation, while nuclear energy made up 19% and renewable sources contributed 21%. Despite a push for renewables and clean energy sources fossil fuels persist. The White House aims to phase out fossil fuels by 2035 and achieve 80% renewable energy by 2030, highlighting the urgency of transitioning to cleaner energy solutions.
