California Meets 100% Renewable Energy For 100 Days Milestone

The state has managed to meet its demands using clean power, though it remains early daysCalifornia recently achieved an important renewable energy milestone, according to a report originally published by Electrik, in which it said that for 100 days, the state managed to meet 100 percent of its power grid demands for at least several minutes, using clean power.This doesn’t mean the state was powered in...

Chart: Almost all new US power plants are carbon-free

Wind projects made up 12 percent of new additions during the same period. Nuclear power contributed another 5 percent of the new capacity additions, thanks to the completion of the 1.1 GW Vogtle 4 reactor in April. Just 400 megawatts of new fossil gas went online in the first six months of 2024. If developers follow through with their construction plans for the second half of this year, the clean...
