Published in 2021, this page is part of our policy archive. For our latest roadmap to 100 percent clean power after the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, check out our January 2023 report.

Thank you for downloading our report on how the Biden administration and Congress can achieve 100% carbon-free power by 2035. You can access the report (and other materials) below. We’ve also sent a copy to your email.

  • Updated report: (August 2021): In this update to the February 2021 report from Evergreen Action and Data for Progress, we explain how action in the coming months is essential. Congress must pass bold investments in clean energy through budget reconciliation. 

  • Independent analysis (September 2021): An independent analysis shows how Congress can create nearly 8 million jobs and $1 trillion in economic growth over the next decade by passing a Clean Electricity Performance Program (CEPP). Our memo with NRDC explains the findings.

  • Polling (February 2021): Data for Progress assessed voter attitudes toward transitioning to a 100% clean, carbon-free power sector and ensuring America meets this clean energy standard by 2035. Polling shows voters support 100% clean electricity by 2035.

  • Original report (February 2021): "Achieving 100% clean electricity, through a federal Clean Electricity Standard (CES) and complementary policies, must be at the top of the new White House’s and Congress’ priority list this year. CES policies are a proven, popular, and practical approach to effectively drive clean energy transformation on the ground."
