US clean-energy blueprint contains 40 % solar goal for 2035

The Biden administration said that solar power could provide 40 per cent of the US’s electricity within 15 years – up from just 3 per cent – in a study that bolsters the case for new clean-energy policies set to be debated in spending bills before Congress.

The Biden administration is pushing hard to win Congressional support for a $3.5tn budget plan that includes measures designed to meet the president’s targets of net zero emissions by 2050 and a fully carbon-free domestic electricity industry by 2035.
