New utility-scale solar capacity was 2,530 megawatts (MW) or 39.56% of the total ... and that does not include small-scale distributed PV systems. New wind capacity provided 1,475-MW or 23.06% of the total.

Renewable generation capacity increased by 295 GW (+9.6%) in 2022. Solar energy continued to lead capacity expansion, with a massive increase of 192 GW (+22%), followed by wind energy with 75 GW (+9%). Renewable hydropower capacity increased by 21 GW (+2%) and bioenergy by 8 GW (+5%). Geothermal energy increased by a very modest 181 MW.

The latest issue of EIA's "Electric Power Monthly" report (with data through December 31) reveals that renewable energy sources (including small-scale solar systems) increased their electrical output by 12.37% last year compared to 2021.

The US Department of Energy (DOE) has numerous programs that provide funding to support energy resilience projects throughout the country.

Renewable energy sources (i.e., biomass, geothermal, hydropower, solar, wind) provided nearly three-quarters (74.1%) of new utility-scale generating capacity in the U.S. last year.

For the first five months of 2022, solar, wind, and other renewable energy sources provided 25.7% of U.S. electricity – more than either coal or nuclear power and up from 22.9% a year earlier.

The increase in U.S. electric power sector renewable generation during 2021 came mainly from more wind and solar generation as a result of more wind turbines and utility-scale solar power plants coming online.

By the end of 2021, global renewable generation capacity amounted to 3 064 Gigawatt (GW), increasing the stock of renewable power by 9.1 per cent.

Renewable sources accounted for more than one-eighth (12.61%) of the U.S. energy produced and 12.49% of the energy consumed for electricity, transportation, heating, and other uses.

The committee said geothermal energy and nuclear energy have the potential to play a part in Singapore's future energy supply mix.

Renewable facilities added 23,639 megawatts (MW) of new generating capacity last year with solar and wind providing 12,804-MW and 10,754-MW respectively.

Combined, solar and wind grew by 15.96% and accounted for more than one-eighth (13.05%) of U.S. electrical generation (wind - 9.12%, solar - 3.93%).

The country's installed capacity stood at 99,820 MW at the end of 2021, with 46% of thermal, 32% of hydro, 11% of wind, 8% of solar and 4% of biomass, geothermal, and waste heat.

Some 97% of Turkey's electricity generation capacity that came into operation last year was from renewable energy plants.

Enel Green Power (EGP) added 5,120 MW of new renewable power capacity in 2021 (+65% compared to 2020), including 220 MW of battery capacity.
