Digging a bit into those numbers, coal jobs declined 18% and that number was offset by the increase in employment in petroleum and natural gas (up 9%) as well as the job growth in wind and solar electricity generation (up 22%). Energy jobs rebounded more quickly than other sectors.

One of the beneficial factors for the use of the renewable energy is that it is naturally generated. These sources are constantly replenished such as sunlight, wind, heat and water. The common energy sources are Hydropower, Biomass, Biofuels, Wind, Geothermal and Solar Energy. Most commonly the dam water is used.

Wind and solar accounted for 14 per cent of US electricity, with hydropower accounting for six per cent, and geothermal sources just under one per cent. However, the EIA also revealed that while the use of renewables was rising, so too is the country's reliance on natural gas, which generated 39 per cent of US electricity last year.

Wind and solar power dramatically outperformed expectations, delivering 13 times more generation in 2020 than projected. Finally, natural gas generation grew rapidly, driven by the shale gas revolution and low fuel prices. Emission-free nuclear generation largely held steady. All require more research.

A decision with profound implications for that goal now lies with the Treasury Department, which must settle a debate over the best way of crafting a tax credit designed to advance the production of clean hydrogen. Building a domestic clean hydrogen industry is a key part of the Biden administration’s climate strategy. climate goals.

"As coal is phased out from our generation profile, it will be replaced with zero-carbon resources and prudent investments in cleaner natural gas," Good said, according to a transcript summary of the call. He said the utility "still seems fairly committed to natural gas in its own fleet" under Scope 1.

subsidies to the fossil fuel industry at roughly $20 billion per year; with 20 percent currently allocated to coal and 80 percent to natural gas and crude oil. In short: the oil and gas industry is a massive market with many stakeholders and high-stakes interests involved. It is also about electric vehicles and hydrogen.
