Triff Assuming we collectively want adequate, reliable energy to sustain or grow our economy going forward, I strongly favor Next gen nukes and nat gas for base load and commercial scale wind and CSP where it makes economic sense to deploy .. I wonder where all the money to do this is going to come from. The Nuke pie just keeps getting more and more expensive. I just don't see how that can happen when you look at the problem end to end. Renewables just keep getting cheaper every day. The real problem is storage but there is some interesting things coming down the pike. I've run a home on renewables for twenty years. No problems, in fact I've had excess electricity generated almost every day.
