2024 Sustainable Energy in America Factbook | Lisa Jacobson and Tom Rowlands-Rees
The Sustainable Energy in America Factbook serves as a key reference for the state of renewables in the United States.

Despite significant headwinds in 2023, including high interest rates and supply chain challenges, the factbook is full of record-shattering figures that reveal momentum toward a more sustainable energy future.
