19.8%
How much of U.S. energy consumption and electricity generation comes from renewable energy sources? In 2020, renewable energy sources accounted for about 12.6% of total U.S. energy consumption and about 19.8% of electricity generation.Nov 2, 2021 US Energy Information Administration (EIA)
And, what about the Lithium required for those batteries -- any guesses on where that comes from, and what nations we are going to beholden to get the USA to be "free" of fossil fuels?
