The White House has released a Clean Energy Report yesterday. While the three-pager offers not much in the way of new information, it nicely highlights the challenges and ambition. It states:

To drive investment and innovation in the electricity sector, the Administration has set an ambitious goal of generating 80% of our electricity from clean sources by 2035.

This is a remarkably ambitious goal. As a reminder, the current plan of the German Federal Government aims at 80% generation from renewable sources by 2050 – and, as shown in the report, we’re in an arguably better position to start from.
