The article discusses the ongoing transition to renewable energy in the United States, highlighting that despite efforts by the Trump administration to reverse this trend, the shift towards decarbonization is firmly established. It emphasizes three key indicators of this transition: the increasing availability of greenhouse gas emissions data, the growth of the green hydrogen industry, and the support for renewable resources under federal policy. The Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) has launched tools to track emissions, reflecting the demand for transparency in energy sources.

Furthermore, the green hydrogen sector is gaining traction, particularly in Texas, where projects like Infinium's e-fuels facility are set to make significant contributions to sustainable aviation fuel production. Additionally, federal support for biomass and hydropower is fostering growth in these areas, with companies like Montana Renewables expanding their operations. The article concludes that as renewable energy becomes more cost-effective and efficient, fossil fuels are likely to face increasing marginalization in the energy landscape.
