    Its just a fact that all US energy needs without energy needs without exception can be provided by battery backed solar. Wind, hydro and nuclear can pick up the slack.
    There is new solid state wind coming apparently.

    At Las Vegas light levels it would only take an area about the size of a medium sized CA county like San Joquin to replace the entire US energy-fuel stack at incredibly massive economy and personal budget savings- this saves the economy and environment instead of destroying in like hyper subsidized super expensive super dirty NG . This assumes about 20% efficiency for the panels spaced more like they are on roof top vice all the massive wasted space in the Buffet developments which are likely on purpose to mislead. If you want to use average per acre global light falls you need a space closer to the small state of Main- again with current efficiency panels. Even a decade ago with much lower efficiency panels it would only take about 13% of roof tops to replace it all.
    No matter what the propagandists say soon enough it will fall to 1/50 a kwh for battery backed for roof top to replace all consumer needs and commercial for that matter..
