<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:'Gotham',serif;color:#4D4D4F">The 2035 report uses the latest renewable energy and battery cost data to demonstrate the technical and economic feasibility of achieving 90% clean (carbon-free) electricity in the United
States by 2035. Two central cases are simulated using state-of-the-art capacity- expansion and production-cost models: The No New Policy case assumes continuation of current state and federal policies; and the 90% Clean case requires that a 90% clean electricity
share is reached by 2035. The 2035 Report highlights the opportunity to quickly move to 90% carbon free electricity by 2035 while many groups are focusing on 100% carbon free by 2050.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Helvetica"><o:p><br>
