About 20% of our electricity comes from nuclear power now but the power plants are wearing out so the percent will go down unless we start building nuclear plants now.
Nuclear power and pluggable hybrids represent a way take income from the middle east terrorists and reduce CO2 emissions. Pluggable hybrids will be introduced in a couple years. They take advantage of the fact that most people most of the time drive less than 20 miles a day. Batterys that provide enough power for 20 miles of driving are cheaper and smaller. The can be made for a reasonable cost that middle class people can afford. So people could do most of their driving by charging up their car batteries at night. If they wanted to drive more than 20 miles then they would be using gasoline like a regular hybrid. But to make this work we need enough electricity. Of course the libs are against most/maybe all energy development.
