Energy facts, as reported by TechNet at the summit:
The
U.S. is the world's largest consumer of oil. It accounts for 25 percent
of global daily consumption, but holds less than percent of world's
proven oil reserves. The Middle East by contrast holds more than 61
percent of the world's oil reserves (U.S. Department of Energy).
The
power of the sun: All the energy stored in the earth's reserves of
coal, oil and natural gas is equal to the energy from only 20 days of
sunshine (Energy Information Administration).
Clean, renewable
energy like solar and wind power currently produces roughly 2 percent
of U.S. electricity. In contrast, nearly 90 percent of our electricity
still comes from traditional sources such as coal and nuclear power
(U.S. Department of Energy). (source)
