Countries around the world are increasing renewable energy production to mitigate climate change. In the U.S., renewable energy production has more than doubled over the past decade, although clean energy advocates fear this growth could slow during President Trump's second term.

However, progress on renewable energy varies from state to state. Some states get more than half their power from renewables, while others get only a few percent. Here are the latest statistics on renewable energy use by state, including how much they produce and energy industry goals for states that have them.

Production by state

Renewable energy production by state

rgy sources.

Types of renewable energy

States also vary in the types of renewable energy they produce. For example, California's biggest renewable energy source is solar energy. Texas, on the other hand, is known for wind energy.

In the tables below, you'll also see "wood and wood-derived fuels," which are usually the byproducts of lumber and paper milling. "Other biomass" includes other plant-derived materials, including agricultural crops and waste, materials from municipal solid waste, animal manure, and human waste.

You may notice that we haven't included hydroelectric power in these tables despite it being a notable renewable energy source that provides 5.6% of the power in the U.S. However, while hydro is renewable, there's debate over whether it's sustainable. Because of this and the fact that the U.S. Energy Information Administration lists hydro separately from other renewables, we've opted to omit it from these statistics.

Renewables are on the rise

The U.S. as a whole is getting more of its energy from renewable sources. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022 has helped with this, as it provides $369 billion for clean energy investments.

However, the Trump administration has been working to undo the IRA and end federal support for renewable energy projects. The administration froze funds related to climate initiatives earlier this year, although a judge later ordered that the funds be unfrozen. The One Big, Beautiful Bill Act, if passed, would terminate tax credits that have helped grow the renewable energy industry.

On a positive note, renewable energy numbers have been steadily increasing over the years. The current political landscape could impact that growth, but quite a few states have set their own clean energy goals, so the hope is that the production of renewable energy will continue to rise going forward.
