In the United States, electricity derived from coal has decreased over the past two decades, with the annual output declining by almost 65 percent between 2010 and 2024. In contrast, there has been a rise in natural gas and renewable sources within the energy mix. How is electricity generated in the U.S.? Most electricity in the U.S. is generated from steam turbines, which can be powered by fossil and nuclear fuels, biomass, geothermal, and solar thermal energy. Other systems such as gas turbines, hydro turbines, wind turbines, and solar photovoltaics are also major generation technologies. Electric utilities in the U.S. generated more than 2,241 terawatt hours in 2024, accounting for just over half of the power output in the country that year. Growing renewable capacity Renewable sources have become more prominent in the U.S. over the past years, particularly wind, hydro, and solar energy. The former has overtaken conventional hydropower, becoming the leading renewable energy source in the U.S. since 2019. Wind and solar power have also accounted for the largest share of electricity capacity additions in the country in recent years.

This file ‘all_areas_dataframe_renewables_and_non_renewables.xlsx’ is the result of the notebook https://www.kaggle.com/code/fords001/renewable-and-non-renewable-electricity-resources . It contains information from the years 2000 to 2023 and includes 18 sheets: for the percentage of electricity generation and for electricity generation in terawatt-hours (TWh) for each of the following world regions: Africa, Europe, Asia, North America, Latin America and the Caribbean, Oceania, as well as for the entire world. Each region has 11 columns representing different sources of electricity generation: Non-Renewables: Coal, Gas, Nuclear, Other Fossil (4 columns), Renewables: Bioenergy, Hydro, Solar, Wind, Other Renewables (5 columns). For each world region, we have two additional columns: Total Non-Renewables (1 column) and Total Renewables (1 column), which will be the sum of the related electricity generation columns .

description: ### A2e Atmosphere to Electrons (A2e) is a new, multi-year, multi-stakeholder U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) research and development initiative tasked with improving wind plant performance and mitigating risk and uncertainty to achieve substantial reduction in the cost of wind energy production. The A2e strategic vision will enable a new generation of wind plant technology, in which smart wind plants are designed to achieve optimized performance stemming from more complete knowledge of the inflow wind resource and complex flow through the wind plant. Read more ... ### Project: Leading-edge Erosion Study (LEES) Project #### Airfoil Performance Degradation due to Roughness and Leading-edge Erosion Wind farms often underperform predicted power output by 10 to 30 percent relative to manufacturer predictions. A potential aerodynamic explanation is that blade roughness caused by insect impingement and leading-edge erosion decreases lift and drag as opposed to clean blades. These effects are difficult to test in the field because aerodynamic performance cannot be measured directly and can be affected by many factors that cannot be controlled in field experiments. This project provides aerodynamic performance data using wind tunnel measurements of representative inboard and outboard blade sections contaminated with various types and levels of roughness and leading-edge erosion. Results include aerodynamic load coefficients and measurements of laminar-to-turbulent transition location as functions of Reynolds number and angle of attack for various roughness configurations.
