The United States supports Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) partners in meeting their clean energy goals. Above, wind turbines turn in Sidenreng Rappang, Indonesia. Dat Bike is one of numerous partners the US government works with to meet this rapidly growing demand for clean energy. million people.

The legislation committed nearly $400 billion to support, among other things, wind and solar power, battery storage, electric vehicles, and other clean energy technologies that will make a significant dent in US heat-trapping emissions. How is that going to happen? Their report, however, comes with a warning.

With the clean energy transition already under way, the US electricity mix is set to continue changing this year. Solar power is expected to make up about half of all additions of US electric generating capacity in 2023, according to data from the US Energy Information Administration (EIA). I’ll start off with the good.

We also evaluated the potential to accelerate the use of renewable energy dramatically through state-level renewable electricity standards, which have been major drivers of clean energy in recent decades. From 2020 to 2040, solar generation in these states jumps nearly ninefold and wind generation more than sevenfold.

Additionally, long-term energy plans consider how utilities will operate their existing power generating facilities and what type of new facilities they might build and when. DTE currently has 3,000 MW of existing and approved solar and wind resources.) DTE also would install nearly 2,000 MW of battery resources by 2042.
