Wind turbines and solar panels produced about 32.3 million megawatt hours in the quarter, compared to 29.7 million megawatt hours churned out by the combined cycle gas turbines. The pattern is similar to last year, when renewables outproduced combined cycle gas turbines in the first four months of 2021, thanks in part to seasonally lower demand and higher wind output.
“The transition that first saw renewables catch and then pass coal-fired generation is now on the horizon for gas,” Wamstead wrote. “As with the coal experience, the shift won’t be immediate. Wind generated more electricity than coal in a month for the first time in 2016 but it wasn’t until 2019 that wind and solar together finally topped coal.”Renewable power generation, especially solar, is expected to keep growing.
