Solve the amount of raw collection (speaking of "next generation" energy technologies), and some leakage in the storage and delivery becomes acceptable. It remains a problem that you can peck at, over time.
For the U.S., I see a/the primary crisis that is addressable as being energy. And solving it would, directly and indirectly, re-invigorate our economy and provide an entire sector not just of jobs but of careers / career growth. And education.
That the current Administration didn't jump into this aggressively, has been of enormous disappointment to me.
That would be some leadership. Chart the course (course corrections allowed), and advocate -- including with that bully pulpit -- to make it so.
Given that we don't have such leadership (which would be unusual, admittedly), it will have to be bottom up. I just hope that's enough.
