It looks like all we need do is expand that "Biomass/other" from 3.2% to 90%, and the problem is licked.

It's interesting how inefficient electrical generation and transportation are. I haven't checked out the source files to see if some energy sources are more efficient than others or if they even cover that.

The U.S. is the “Saudi Arabia of coal”. We should be conducting a Manhattan Project-style effort to produce clean-burning coal plants across the nation.

I remember back in the seventies reading how transmission of electricity resulted in losses of 50%.

Superconductive transmission lines were the answer then.

Are they anywhere on the horizon?

That 27.8 loss in eletrical system losses is a freaking shame. We should be researching room temp superconductors as a national strategic project.
