How much of the average household consumption can renewable energy provide?
Depending upon where you live, you can choose to pay extra to have your utility provider purchase renewable energy for you. Also, depending upon your location, you already have a certain percentage of your electricity provided from renewable sources, purchased by your utility. Read up on Renewable Energy Portfolio Standards (RPS's), which differ state by state, are enacted by state legislation, and mandate that electricity providers procure a certain percentage of their electricity from renewables. Many RPS's dictate 20% by the year 2020.
