Texas Energy Production Yearly Report

Texas Surpasses California in Clean Energy, Solar Overtakes Coal

May 24, 2024, 01:46 PM

Texas has surpassed California in clean energy production, including solar, wind, nuclear, hydro, and biomass. For the first time, Texas, a state rich in fossil fuels, generated more electricity from solar power than from coal. This achievement is significant as it positions Texas as a climate leader, despite political opposition. The shift is driven by economic sense, similar to the irreversible decline of coal during Trump's administration.
