Renewable energy will help with all of that—but we need a grid that is designed for wind and solar instead of having to rely on expensive coal and gas plants. These investments will help accommodate accelerating amounts of low-cost renewable energy like wind and solar power, laying the groundwork for a cleaner, cheaper grid.
