Top 5 Renewable Energy Source in the US

Top 5 Renewable Energy Sources in US
Biomass icon infographic

Electricity can be generated by converting waste materials, such as wood waste, agricultural products, trash and animal material, into energy through biological, chemical and combustion processes.

Wind icon Infographic renewable power

Electricity is created as wind blows and turns wind turbines creating kinetic energy from the motion, which is converted into electricity. This type of generation does not create any greenhouse gas emissions.

Hydropower Icon Infographic

Electricity is produced from water by capturing energy using gravity to turn the blades of a turbine with flowing water, converting the energy into electricity – all with low greenhouse gas emissions.

Solar Icon Yellow Infographic

One of the cleanest renewable energy sources is solar generated electricity, which converts sunlight into energy through photovoltaic panels or by concentrating a large area of sunlight onto a receiver using mirrors or lenses.

Geothermal Icon

Steam is used to produce electricity as it comes from underground hot water reservoirs. This is considered a renewable form of energy since heat is continuously created within the earth

Transition to a cleaner energy future

With one third of our power coming from renewable sources, we can help you make the switch to cleaner energy today.

Giving solar energy its time in the sun

Access more than 1.1 GW of solar generation capacity from Shell-operated facilities and joint-venture partnerships - including Silicon Ranch, one of the largest independent power producers in the US, with more than 140 solar projects across 14 states.
