"renewable" energy is a misleading term. It includes renewable (non fossil-fuel) sources such as Corn Ethanol. It is debatable whether such sources have any long-term environmental benefit[1]. Carbon neutral or zero-carbon energy is a much clearer term with much more direct environmental benefits. It's also a higher standard which means less impressive numbers to report which is probably why they did not use it in this article.
