Distribution of Clean Energy Investment by the Industry Feasibility of Local Economic Area

The places best poised to build thriving clean energy industries (as identified in RMI's Clean Growth Tool) have attracted the most investment, especially in manufacturing.

NB: Since the feasibility score mostly captures existing economic capabilities, rather than resource endowments, it is logical than manufacturing would be more related to feasibility than 'energy and industry,' which includes renewable electricity investments that are highly subject to non-economic characteristics like wind/solar potential or interconnection availability
