California added record clean energy — can it keep it up?

For a period of three years in a row, California has added a record amount of new clean energy. The amount of renewable energy and storage (IE batteries) added since 2020 is almost equivalent to the amount of electricity that the state has used on average on a daily basis – about 25,000 megawatts, according to new data from the office of the ruler Gavin New News and the Public Utilities Committee in California freedom.

California expects growth to continue, although the next road is increasingly looking with the Trump administration in an attempt to make it difficult to build a new green energy infrastructure in the United States.

“We have not added much to our network in such a short time of time, and we transformed our power network until it is more clean, reliable and flexible than ever.” freedom. His office refused to comment on the proposals in the “Grand and Beautiful Bill” of President Trump, which could lead to the development of renewable energy if Congress passes in its current form.

California added approximately 7,000 megawatts of renewable electricity and storage last year. This surpasses the previous records specified in 2023 and 2022 from 5,542 and 4,082 megawatts, respectively.

Looking at the future, another 20,000 megawatts in green energy projects under the contract is expected to be completed by 2030.

Renewable energy was launched as more alternatives at reasonable prices to generate electricity from fossil fuels. California is now more than 50 percent of electricity from renewable energy sources. This is more than the United States as a whole, which gets about 20 percent of electricity from renewable sources.

To increase the risks, Republicans in the House of Representatives acknowledged a copy of the “Great and Beautiful” draft spending law in May, which would reduce tax credit in the Biden era for renewable energy projects. Now the Senate wanders with the draft law, which Republicans are said to be hoping to transfer it before the July 4 holiday. Energy incentives were a hot topic-besides the proposed medical cuts and other flower proposals in the comprehensive draft law-given that the republican areas that will benefit more than projects that benefit from these tax credits.

Texas – the fastest solar energy market in the United States – may lose 34,100 jobs in that industry by 2030 if the parliament version of the draft law will become a law. California can lose more than 35700, according to an analysis published by the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) yesterday.
