US President Barack Obama has called for radical energy goals for the country in his 2011 State of the Union address, including a target of producing 80% of US electricity from clean energy sources by 2035. To break its oil dependency, Obama also stated that the US should aim to be the first country to have one million electric vehicles on the road by 2015 and to provide access to high-speed rail to 80% of US citizens within 25 years.
