Why complicate things when we already have a non-polluting eternal source of fuel in the sky, AND the technology to harvest it, AND it's actually economical and uncontroversial, AND the available energy is orders-of-magnitude more than needed today?
Hmmm. PG&E wouldn't have to worry about 100,000 miles of transmission lines if power-generation could be decentralized. Oh, wait, it can be! And without paying for 10,000 years of security.
Of course it won't make anyone rich or powerful, and it's decentralized, and those are bad things. Apparently.
- bkcreate 8y agoAre you forgetting about the change where all new homes in CA have to have solar panels? We already are moving towards mass adoption of solar, that doesn't stop us from exploring other options that work in less sunny places, at night, etc. Solar won't work everywhere.
