battery and solar at the home level is what makes the most sense.

60% of the planet lives between the subtropics and tropics. There is way more than plenty of sunlight hitting our earth to support all of our energy demands, and any naysaying around battery technology is missing the forest for the trees.

I believe it would attribute to cheaper of free energy and to more peace. I am agreeing with you.

And I imagined a all encompassing " worldgrid" across all continents and islands. We did it with phone networks, now we should do energy.
