Investment in clean energy generation and technologies shattered records in 2022, even as supply chain disruptions, an international energy crisis, and rising interest rates elevated prices for key energy commodities. Power generation from renewable sources hit a new record, consumers purchased nearly 1 million new electric vehicles, and Congress sent a clear signal about long-term commitment to decarbonization through the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, the most consequential climate law in U.S. history.

The 2023 Sustainable Energy in America Factbook covers the progress of the energy efficiency, natural gas, and renewable energy sectors.
