Renewables are expected to account for 24 percent of U.S. renewable electricity generation 2024, increasing to 26 percent in 2025, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s latest Short-Term Energy Outlook, released Jan 9. Renewables accounted for 22 percent of U.S. electricity generation in 2022 and 22 percent in 2023.

Biomass is expected to be used to generate 22.8 billion kilowatt hours (kWh) of electricity in 2024, increasing to 22.5 billion kWh next year. Biomass generation was at 26.7 billion kWh in 2022 and 21.6 billion kilowatt hours (kWh) in 2023 .

The electric power sector consumed 0.213 quadrillion Btu (quad) of waste biomass in 2022 and 0.168 quadrillion Btu (quad) of waste biomass in 2023. That level of consumption is currently expected to be maintained in 2024 and fall to 0.166 quad in 2025. 

The industrial sector is expected to consume 0.158 quad of waste biomass in 2024 & 2025 , decreased from 0.161 quad in 2022 and 0.159 quad in 2023. The sector also consumed 1.278 quad of wood biomass in 2022 and 1.238 quad in 2023, with consumption expected to increase to 1.353 quad in 2024 and 1.367 quad in 2025

The commercial sector consumed 0.037 quad of waste biomass in 2022 and 0.072 quad in 2023. That level of consumption is expected to consume 0.071 quad of waste biomass in 2024 and 2025. The sector is also expected to consume 0.083 quad of wood biomass in both 2024 and 2025, flat with 2023.

The residential sector consumed 0.484 quad of wood biomass in 2022 and 0.443 quad in 2023, with that level of consumption expected to be maintained through 2024 and 2025.

Across all sectors, waste biomass consumption was at 0.399 quad in 2023 and is expected to be maintained in 2024 and 0.395 quad in 2025. Wood biomass consumption was at 2.045 quad in 2022 and 1.932 quad in 2023 and which is expected to increase to 2.067 quad in 2024 and 2.078 quad in 2025.
