Energy independence isn't just about not importing energy resources; it’s about producing more energy than we consume and managing global market fluctuations. The U.S. is energy independent in that we produce more than we use, but to truly secure our energy future, we need to invest in clean energy. By May 2024, clean energy sources provided 15.5% of our electricity, powering 68.3 million homes. Plus, in 2023, these projects generated $1.7 billion in local taxes, benefiting schools, infrastructure, and communities. 🌱 bit.ly/475Z1p2
