US Solar Energy Consumption vs US Secondary School Enrollment
US Solar Energy Consumption and US Secondary School Enrollment correlate at r = +0.75 over 24 years (1983–2022), p < 0.0001. With the time trend removed, r = +0.52. Holds up after detrending.
Verdict: Holds up after detrending. Statistically significant (p = < 0.0001) and the association survives trend removal (detrended r = 0.52). Correlation still isn't causation, but this one isn't an obvious artifact.
