Google Cleantech 2030

The document outlines Google's "Clean Energy 2030" plan to transform the US energy system by 2030. It proposes transitioning away from coal and oil for electricity generation to renewable sources like wind, solar and geothermal. The plan aims to cut electricity sector CO2 emissions by 88% and reduce oil use for vehicles by 40% to cut total US CO2 emissions by 50% by 2030. It analyzes the feasibility of overhauling the electricity grid and vehicle fleet through large investments in renewable infrastructure and incentives for electric vehicles. Studies suggest the transformation is economically feasible with a projected cost of $4.4 trillion offset by $5.4 trillion in savings over 22 years.
