Wind turbines and solar panels accounted for over two-thirds of all new electric generation capacity added to the US grid in 2015, according to a recent analysis by the Energy Department. The remaining third was largely new power plants fuelled by natural gas. This was the second consecutive year in which US investment in renewable energy projects has outpaced that of fossil fuels. Robust growth is predicted for 2016. Wind is now the lowest-cost option for generating electricity, even before federal green energy tax incentives are factored in.
