Re: ...there are only two ways to solve California's energy crisis in the long term. Build more power plants (against the wishes of the community and environmental activists of the last decade)

That's not the problem (California's electricity market can be served from Nevada, Arizona, Oregon, etc.) It's the state regulations that preclude the distribution companies from charging more than X (so they can't pay more than X) that stops new plants from being built. Actually, California's regulations preclude the distribution companies from paying more than X (they lifted that a little in the face of expected blackouts - but capacity can't be put into place instantly).

Craig Barrett himself suggested nuclear generators

Good Man!
