Dec. 23, 2014: Report Says 10 Percent Solar for US in Reach by 2030
Researchers Find That Solar Has Grown 77 Percent in the Last Three Years
BOSTON — Solar power is growing so fast across the United States that 10 percent solar capacity is seen as achievable by 2030, according to a new report by Environment America Research & Policy Center.
“We can get to 10 percent solar by 2030 if we just keep our foot on the accelerator,” said Rob Sargent, energy program director for Environment America and co-author of the report. “That’s a small fraction of what’s possible, but it will make a big difference in the quality of our lives and our children’s future.”
