I expect the owners will license the technology to major manufactures and get rich as the electric cars take over.

What energy source would we tap into in order to charge all those electric car batterys? Nuclear? Coal? Oil?

We will have to build a lot of new power plants.

What an idea!

Build something rather than bi### about it.

There was a time when we would see a problem and then build what was needed to solve it.

Don’t forget the new cheaper, lighter,longer lasting with 3X the storage lead acid batteries from Caterpillar.

I prefer nuclear as it is renewable and clean. There are tons of uranium reserves. There is three hundred years of uranium in the oceans at current total world energy generation. Fast breeders make more fuel than they consume. So it seems a no brainer. Clean coal technology is OK also. We don't use much oil to generate electricity. Peaker and emergency units mostly. I think we should get off oil because it is used against us as a weapon and our ditsy congress won't do a thing about it by allowing us to drill at home. I am sick of paying muzzies for oil.
