Georgia, Texas Lead U.S. in Value of Power Projects Under Construction

SUGAR LAND--June 30, 2021--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--The U.S. Power Industry landscape has shifted drastically over the past decade. In this time, the U.S. has shifted away from coal, gone through a spate of natural gas buildouts and has now shifted toward renewables such as wind and solar. This leads renewables-intensive states such as Texas (wind and solar) and California (solar) into leading positions for the value of under-construction power projects. However, a single, very expensive nuclear project in Georgia launches that state into the leading position.
