Renewables now bigger than nuclear in US
- Image via Wikipedia
According to the latest issue of the “Monthly Energy Review” by the U.S. Energy Information Administration, renewable energy sources, e.g., biofuels, biomass, geothermal, hydroelectric, solar, and wind, provided 11.37 percent of domestic U.S. energy production in June 2009 – the latest month for which data has been published. In both April and May, renewables accounted for more domestic energy production than nuclear, and in the first six months of 2009 provided 11.18 percent of net U.S. electrical generation.
This is great news. Don’t believe the naysayers that promote renewables as a far off solution and therefore fossil fuels is still way to go. That is a disinformation campaign.
