A new report shows U.S. companies and consumers are spending more than ever on clean energy, such as solar, wind, and electric vehicles. And a lot of clean investment is happening in the Mountain West.

More than 10 million U.S. homes sit within three miles of a solar farm. A new national survey looks into how people feel about having these large renewable energy projects as their neighbors.

A new report shows rooftop solar energy in the U.S. has increased tenfold over the past decade. Some states in the Mountain West lead the charge while others lag behind.

More and more Americans are turning to rooftop solar panels to lower their energy bills. But having them installed can be expensive – and the cost varies widely across the Mountain West.

Phasing out fossil fuels requires a lot of clean energy infrastructure like solar farms. And one sun-soaked part of the Mountain West is grabbing a share of that green gold rush by retraining workers to handle the growth.

A new report reveals how much clean energy could be generated from putting solar panels on every warehouse in the nation.

The build-out of clean energy infrastructure in the West on its current trajectory would occupy about 39 million acres of land – roughly three-fourths the size of Utah – by 2050. A new study by The Nature Conservancy, however, suggests that the right mix of technologies can cut the amount of land needed in half.
