Are there any other states with 99.8% clean energy?
EDIT: The US Energy Information Administration disagrees with these numbers: |
Not sure how you get 99.8% green or even what you consider green...
But Washington produces about 75% from hydro, plus about 18% from Wind, natural gas, and nuclear combined.
I don't really see that as our state being more environmentally conscious than other states. It's more that we won the location-lottery and have access to a lot of hydro power.
