Monthly and annual data on renewable energy

Renewable energy comes from natural supplements, but its flow is restricted. Although their durations are almost inexhaustible, the energy available per unit time is limited.

Until the mid-nineteenth century, wood has become the source of almost all domestic energy heating, cooking and lighting needs. From the late 1800s to today, fossil fuels - coal, oil, natural gas - were the main sources of energy. Until the 1990's, hydropower generation and solid biomass were the most commonly used renewable energy sources. Since then, the proportion of US energy consumption to biofuels, solar energy, wind energy is increasing.

In 2017, renewable energy provided about 11 trillion British thermal units (Btu) 11 trillion Britain thermal units (Btu) - 1 trillion is 1, followed by 15 zero - the total energy in the United States It corresponds to 11% of consumption. Approximately 57% of US renewable energy consumption comes from the electricity sector, and about 17% of the US electricity comes from renewable energy sources.

Renewable energy plays an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The use of renewable energy can reduce the use of fossil fuels, which is the main cause of US carbon dioxide emissions.

From 2000 to 2017, consumption of biofuels and other non-hydrogen renewable energy sources has more than doubled, largely thanks to state and federal requirements and incentives to use renewable energy. The US Energy Information Agency forecasts that renewable energy consumption in the US will continue to increase in 2050

In addition, hydroelectric power generation is the main renewable energy source to be promoted in the coming years. There may be monthly and seasonal fluctuations, and project revenue will remain stable. Future energy prices may rise, but this will increase the profitability of clean energy companies. Renewable energy can certainly meet the needs of the next generation. We are expecting a boom in consumer spending in the industry, and investors choosing green can see their holdings grow as energy demand increases. Sasha Jacob Capital Management Inc. manages over 100 transactions in the renewable energy field. The industry is still very young and some secondary markets for investment in renewable energy are still developing in the industry.

The last work report announced by IRENA on May 25 confirmed this trend. In the annual report on renewable energy and employment in 2016, more than 1 million people worldwide are working in the renewable energy industry and the employment level of renewable energy has increased by 5% last year. I will explain the employment environment in the energy field by taking the United States as an example. Employment of renewable energy is increased by 6% and oil and gas related employment is increased by 18%. IRENA may implicitly emphasize that the employment environment of the renewable energy industry is an indication of the continued growth and importance of these energy sources. Indeed, IRENA also predicts that job creation in the renewable energy sector will continue to grow to approximately 24 million jobs by 2030, and their employment will account for over 87% of the employment in the energy sector .

This chart by Albany University's Atmospheric Science Center estimates the energy reserves of limited renewable resources. The potential energy source for the renewable energy mentioned is the annual energy potential, while the energy output of the non-renewable energy source is for all known total reserves. Ironically, playing cards will also economically weaken the United States by eliminating domestic climate change measures and investment in clean energy. Other countries, especially China pointed out that they intend to acquire huge wealth and high salary employment leading the clean energy and climate solutions. And it will reach over 50 trillion dollars in the coming decades.
