(ANSA) - WASHINGTON, 08 SEPT - The Biden administration intends to announce today the ambitious goal of producing almost half of the country's electricity (45%) with solar energy by 2050, as part of its efforts to combat climate change . The New York Times anticipates this, underlining that this is a big leap, given that last year the solar energy was less than 4% of the electricity produced in the US.
In a new report, the energy department says the country must double the amount of solar energy installed each year for the next four years, compared to 2020, and that it must double annual installations by 2030.
Many details, the newspaper specifies, will be decided by the Congress, which is working on a bipartisan law on infrastructures and other measures that could lead to the approval of a spending plan of 3500 billion dollars. (HANDLE).
