The image below portrays the final red stack green stack analysis for the United States. The calculations used to arrive at the values in this analysis were modeled after McKay's analysis of Britain but applied to the United States. As seen below, the US has a lot of potential renewable energy sources. A large part of this is probably due to the massive amount of unpopulated land at the United States disposal. This analysis assumes infinite amounts of money available so does not take into account the cost of implementing each of the green stack items.
The red and green stacks that McKay found for Britain are both slightly shorter than the red stack found for the United States. Britain is more constrained when it comes to area available for green stack items.
The table below summarizes the values found for all green stack items for the United States:
