US solar generation increased by 32% and wind rose 7% in 2024. Share of wind & solar increased to 16% of US electricity last year, more than we got from burning coal. The bottom line though as seen in the light from the LA fires is that we all need to decarbonize faster. 🔌💡 rhg.com/research/pre...

As a DC local, I want to say how hugely important of a win this is and give thanks to tremendous local organizing. This monstrosity is a environmental injustice and dangerous eyesore in the middle of a low income community of color trying to create new healthy green spaces along the Anacostia River.

The Biden Admin just approved the 2.4 gigawatt SouthCoast Wind Project off Mass. & R.I. It's the nation’s 11th approved commercial-scale offshore wind project & brings the total approved by Biden's Dept of Interior to more than 19 gigawatts--enough to power >6M homes. www.doi.gov/pressrelease... 🔌💡
