Importance of Sustainable Energy for United States
4 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity generated in the United States during the year 2016.
The division of energy production in United States shows major contribution of natural gas i.e.
34% of total energy production, coal comes at the second place with about 30% of energy
production, 1% of the energy was produced from petroleum, 5% of overall energy was produced
by nuclear and finally 15% energy was produced using renewable energy sources including
hydropower, wind power, biomass, solar power, and geothermal energy (Electricity Explained).
History of energy in United States is similar to any country in the world. In 1700s, wood was the
main source of energy in every domestic as well as corporate sector. After a century, in 1800s,
coal become the main source of energy. After the discovery of petroleum sources and natural
gas, these sources become the newest addition in energy resources of United States. The
commercial use of nuclear power started in the 1950s and began to increase rapidly in the early
1970s when a number of nuclear power plants began working. Since 1995 the amount of energy
produced by renewable sources has increased by 15.9% (History of Energy Use in the United
States). The reason to discuss the history is to show the willingness of American energy
researchers to achieve a state of sustainable energy. From 1700s to 2000s, American researchers
have always tried to find resources more efficient and long lasting. The ultimate result was the
use of renewable resources to achieve the status of sustainable energy state. In short, by looking
at the history of energy in United States, it can be said that scholarly conversation about energy
has always remained the same throughout history and with the passage of time scholars will keep
struggling for more efficient ways of energy production and consumption. This will ultimately
benefit the future generations.
One of the main reasons why scholars always supported the idea of evolution is the
environmental protection. According to Ismail Bozkurt a researcher at Marmara University
Turkey “The World Energy Committee states that there exists no risk-free energy resource and
Alnaqbi
for this reason, while choosing the energy resources, cost factors must be considered with
environmental effects” (327). He further stated that pollution of air is caused by elements such as
Carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and mercury. These particles are emitted during the combustion
process of coal, natural gas, and petroleum. By taking a look at US energy production, most of
the energy production is by using these resources. This was the reason why US scholars focused
on sustainable and renewable energy resources.
Similar to the above-mentioned suggestion, another environmental researcher Amir
Hosein supported the idea of green house energy production. Opposite to other ideas, this idea
suggests the production of energy on household level. People can generate their own energy by
using solar panels, water energy, or thermal energy. The benefit of green energy on small level is
the production of energy with a very little cost (15). The practical implementa tion of this model
is present in some Indian villages in South Asia. According the article of Amit Jain presented in
International Conference on Power System Technology “Many villages in India are remotely
located and their connectivity with the grid is very difficult resulting in their being not electrified
at all or lack of continuous supply. The solution to this problem was the generation of energy on
local level” (1). This example showed that if a developing state like India can implement such
model US can do this more easily.
In addition to both these scholars, some other scholars suggested some innovative ways
to utilize resources that we use in daily life for the production of energy. The use of eco labeling
and recycling products for the production of energy is another important dimension in achieving
the status of a country with sustainable energy. This is simple, as long as products will use eco
labels, people will know that they’re buying something productive and later on these products
can be used in generating energy (Benerjee, 58). By taking a look at previous ideas and this one,
it is clear that scholars totally support the idea of sustainable energy the only difference is the
difference of resources suggested by the scholars. Currently 15% of energy production in US is
from renewable sources, this percentage needs to be increased, only then US will able to
generate sustainable energy.
In conclusion, since the independence of United States, government has tried their best to
keep energy production more efficient and sustainable but the future demands the type of energy
where future generations can have enough energy to spend. In all this struggle, scholarly
Alnaqbi
conversation has never changed. Scholars have always talked about energy sources that will
benefit present and future generations with less cost. By analyzing the current situation, it is safe
to say that the conversation will remain the same for a long time.

ANALYSIS
Make sure you focus on why you use sources - just state the
information which comes from it. Think of the articles as tools in order
to back up your discussion about how your topic has shifted in terms of
the conversation.
ORGANIZATION
While you do not take a stance, make sure your body
paragraphs are not focused around one source - your body
paragraphs need to be focused around an idea.
