Renewables almost on par with nuclear in U.S. energy production

The U.S. Energy Information Administration reports this month that U.S. renewable energy production is now at 11.14% compared to nuclear production at 11.19%. The gains have been made despite the inaction of Congress to pass climate change legislation that would support renewable energy development. As Ken Bossong, president of the SUN DAY Campaign, stated, "Renewable energy has proven itself to be a solid investment - growing rapidly and nipping at the heels of the stagnant nuclear power industry."
