Big things are happening in the world of solar energy. Today, solar energy accounts for approximately 3% of U.S. energy supply. That percentage is projected to increase to 40% over the course of the next 12 years. According to a study done by the U.S. Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, “30% of buildings’ energy, 14% of transportation energy, and 8% of industrial energy” will be fully reliant on solar energy by the year 2050. Not only will this expansion of solar energy change the trajectory of our environment, it will also provide millions of jobs. In fact, the study suggests that the solar industry alone will employ over 500,000 people by the year 2050. The future is bright, thanks to solar energy! Go solar today!
