What percent of California homes have solar power, what percent of CA energy is produced by solar or wind power? How much electricity is required for buildings or electric vehicles now? How much would be required, say in 10 years, if lots of Californians buy electric vehicles? At least part of this could be resolved by sensibly phased increases in solar/wind supply and vehicle needs. Nuclear increase could help, but have we resolved the nuclear waste disposal issue? I am not aware of any improvements in that issue.
I saw a one hour special on this reactor that Gates/Buffet developed. I was impressed...it actually uses waste from all the stockpiles around the country as its fuel. And, it can never melt down, ect. It looks like the way to go, IMO.
