FERC's latest "Energy Infrastructure Update" (with summary statistics for January and February 2018) also reveals that the total installed capacity of renewable energy sources (i.e., biomass, geothermal, hydropower, solar, wind) now provides over one-fifth (20.4 percent) of total available U.S. generating capacity. Combined, wind and solar alone exceed one-tenth (10.2 percent) of installed capacity — a share greater than either nuclear power (9.1 percent), hydropower (8.5 percent), or oil (3.6 percent).
