How much solar energy will we need in a decarbonized future? @ENERGY and @NREL set out to find the answer in a newly published report: the Solar Futures Study. Put your sunglasses on and check out the thread below!🌞energy.gov/solarfutures Image
@ENERGY @NREL The answer is… QUITE A LOT!

To achieve our decarbonization goals, solar will need to supply about 45% of our electricity production in 2050, including growing demand from newly electrified loads from cars, buildings, and more. Image
