AI Summary

New data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, reviewed by the SUN DAY Campaign, show that renewable electricity generation grew by more than 10% in the first five months of 2026, pushing renewables to exceed 30% of total U.S. generation. The report projects that solar, wind and battery storage will add roughly 83 GW of new capacity by May 31 2027, while fossil‑fuel and nuclear capacity is expected to decline by about 4.7 GW. These shifts indicate a continued swing toward renewable sources in the nation’s power mix.
