Your position reminds me of the WorldWatch report I read many years ago- ie technology improvements offset resource availabilty declines.

Do you have any thoughts on the proposed subsidy of additional Nukes (loan guarantees) included in the Energy bill?

I understand they are planing a test/pilot plant in Idaho that would generate Hydrogen as part of the process.

There is a short 10 page or so presentation from ETR on this here:
entergy.com[Read-Only].pdf

Tippet correctly asserts that Hydrogen is only an energy store, not source. Yet per the slides above, using hydrogen to modify gasoline would have quite an impact...

Adding just 5% hydrogen to gasoline can increase gas mileage AND lower emissions by 30-40%

Without much knowledge at all, I suggested off peak baseload capacity could be used to 'store' energy in the form of hydrogen. I understand right now, most hydrogen is created by stripping natural gas of C, which must be more expensive these days...
