Nuclear generation in April at lowest monthly level since April 2014, says EIA
July 10, 2017 by Nancy Owano
 

(Tech Xplore)—US Energy Information Administration (EIA) said that in March, and April, U.S. monthly electricity generation from utility-scale renewable sources exceeded nuclear generation for the first time since July 1984.

What contributed to the rise? The report said it was "record generation from both wind and solar" along with recent increases in hydroelectric power due to high precipitation across much of the West over the winter period.
