Renewable energy and additive manufacturing: Biden argues for move to renewable energy; AM stands at the ready AM Industry
Joe Biden clearly endorsed renewable energies during the second presidential debate, which took place on the evening of October 22, 2020. The specific renewable energies that have yet to be explored at a widespread industrial scale are biomass, solar and wind. Biden argued for a move away from fossil fuels while adopting wind and solar energy as sustainable replacements. Such a policy does not, of course, spell overnight doom for the oil industry; it does, however, mean that renewable energy companies might seek to ramp up production in the coming years if Biden gets elected. Increasing production, particularly in emerging solar and wind production, is territory rife for additive manufacturing.
