启动可再生能源
More and more our dependence on fossil fuels is behind us. In 2019年4月, for the first time, renewable energy generating capacity surpassed coal, according to the U.S. Department of 能源.
Innovations in renewable technologies promise true energy independence. Bringing these innovations to market requires careful planning, collective commitment and coordinated action with private and public entities pooling their best minds and resources.
可再生能源是 640亿美元 market in the United States, which accounts for 11% of energy consumption. Solar energy is a large part of this consumption, as one of the 前两名 sources of new electricity generating capacity in the U.S.

Arizona’s universities are also committed to sustainable initiatives including solar and wind installations, infrastructure improvements to reduce electrical and natural gas consumption, and labs dedicated to researching a sustainable future.
The primary energy source for Arizona is nuclear. West of Phoenix is Palo Verde Generating Station, the nation’s largest nuclear power plant, producing power for more than 4 million people across regions in New Mexico, 德州, California and Arizona. The generating station is dedicated to being the largest carbon-free contributor to Arizona’s clean air energy -- recycling more than 20 billion gallons of wastewater annually from surrounding municipalities to cool the plant.
