Two recent records set by renewables in the U.S. are welcome wins amid climate doom and gloom.
This date marks the first time that wind energy surpassed both coal and nuclear capacity—which were at 19% and 17%, respectively, on March 29. Wind output had, on separate days, surpassed coal and nuclear separately, but never constituted enough power to outstrip both.—a measure of how much time an energy source is actually producing power—of wind versus nuclear energy.
Nuclear plants are designed to run continuously, so their capacity factor is the highest of all energy sources; wind, on the other hand, can only provide energy when the wind is blowing. The fact that wind output matched the steady beat of nuclear energy is encouragingIn California, the ISO explained in its statement, renewables records are generally set in the spring, when mild temperatures and ample sunshine let wind and solar shine.
