The latest news magazine from our electric provider published that they doubled their solar capacity last year, and by year's end, additional capacity will come online.
Between solar and wind, we're now at around 19% renewable. Texas leads the nation in wind production.
Our main supplier hasn't built a fossil-fuel power plant since 2013.
Without any subsidies, solar and wind are now the cheapest cost electricity available, over the life of the infrastructure. Coal is now down to 20% of supply, versus 40% a decade ago.
No impetus from Washington. D.C.. Just Adam Smith's 'invisible hand of capitalism.'
