🧵✈️On 12/1/2021, one @United flight was different than every other plane in the sky. As the first passenger flight powered 100% by biofuel, it left 75% less CO2 in its wake. See the potential of Sustainable Aviation Fuel⬇️ energy.gov/eere/articles/…
The Sustainable Aviation Fuel Grand Challenge is a government-wide effort to develop a comprehensive strategy to reduce costs, enhance sustainability and expand the production of #biofuels. Federal govt agencies involved include: @ENERGY, @USDOT, @USDA: energy.gov/eere/articles/…
Sustainable Aviation Fuel can create good-paying, union jobs in manufacturing, improve air quality, and unlock agricultural economic opportunity —all while reducing and eventually eliminating aviation’s climate impact. energy.gov/eere/articles/…
Traditional jet fuel is refined from petroleum. Sustainable Aviation Fuel is produced from a range of widely available renewable feedstocks & waste resources and can be mixed with petroleum-based fuels with no alterations to existing equipment. Learn more energy.gov/eere/articles/…
The United States is the largest producer of biofuels in the world. Our nation’s biofuel industry has produced billions of gallons of fuel and prevented millions of tons of CO2 emissions. Learn more: energy.gov/eere/articles/…

Over the weekend @RogerMarshallMD got a VIP tour of an innovative building #energyefficiency project led by Sumner County, KS with the help of several public and private partners.🤝wellingtondailynews.com/2022/03/12/us-… Image
Sumner County, with the City of Wellington and other partners, is testing passive thermal energy storage in roof and ceiling tiles in six public sector buildings. The project will:
💡Reduce heating, cooling, and electric use by 20%
💵Cut energy costs
✅Demonstrate new tech Image
.@RogerMarshallMD spoke about the importance of federal investment in innovation and energy efficiency:

“If your electric bill is $400, saving 20% is significant and rates aren’t coming down.” Image

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
@ENERGY @NREL Let’s dig in… We started with the goal of achieving 95% decarbonization of the electric grid by 2035 and 100% by 2050. From there, we modeled the role solar energy would need to play to meet those milestones. energy.gov/solarfutures Image
