    The Biden Administration recently published a study laying out scenarios to increase solar energy production to transition to a carbon-free electrical grid. One scenario found that the US could produce 45% of energy consumed in 2030

    What percent of US electricity will be produced by solar power in 2030?

    This question will resolve as the percent of the electricity consumed in the United States that is produced by solar power in 2030, according to Our World In Data. If Our World In Data does not publish this data for 2030, the closest comparable source will be used.
