Indications From The Conference Board

Despite having more than doubled since 2010, renewable energy makes up less than 20 percent in the US’ electricity mix.  In this podcast episode, chief economist Dana Peterson discusses with senior economists Alex Heil and Erin McLaughlin the trends in the energy sector and how those affect businesses and households. They cover the uneven playing field in various states in the US, the costs of renewables and battery technologies, potential obstacles to a greater adoption of renewables, and what role federal and local policies play.
