Renewable energy sources in the US have surpassed 30% of power generating capacity by mid-2026, with solar tripling, battery storage growing twentyfold, and wind capacity increasing by a third despite policies favouring fossil fuels under the Trump administration.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

The US energy market is decisively moving past fossil fuels despite political resistance, meaning you must align your clean energy startup with accelerating demand for solar and storage. Betting on legacy coal or nuclear will cost you market relevance and customers.
