Electricity generated from renewables surpassed coal in theRenewables also surpassed nuclear generation in 2022 after first doing so last year.
California produced 26% of the national utility-scale solar electricity followed by Texas with 16% and North Carolina with 8%.The most wind generation occurred in Texas, which accounted for 26% of the U.S. total followed by Iowa and Oklahoma . Wind turbines stand in fields near Palm Springs, California, on March 22, 2023. Electricity generated from renewables surpassed coal in the United States for the first time in 2022, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
This presents challenges for engineers and policy-makers, Porder said, because existing energy grids were built to deliver power from a consistent source. Renewables such as solar and wind generate power intermittently. So battery storage, long-distance transmission and other steps will be needed to help address these challenges, he said.climate-changing fossil fuels
