Georgia
Georgia depends heavily on fossil fuels, particularly coal, to meet its energy needs and is also home to two large nuclear power plants. Renewable energy sources are a growing popularity in the state. The first major wind plant in the southeast U.S is planned for a site off the coast of Savannah, while huge investments have been made for the use of renewable biomass, providing a sizeable portion of the state’s electricity generation. |
