In the last decade the power required to run a computer, for example, has dropped more than ten-fold, and induction and microwave cooking are gaining popularity. Exploration of super - insulators for buildings will end in homes requiring much less energy for the same comfort levels and when the great refrigeration con runs its course and the compressed gas/solar units are made public much less power for the same level of food preservation will be common. Getting rid of customary huge heavy sheetmetal car bodies, and exchanging them for carbon-fiber and plastic bodies will take a leap of faith to adapt to, but the lighter bodies will last longer, be locally rebuildable, and will be so much lighter as to justify the change-over in fuel savings, and what's more, be more fitting to battery/electric propulsion. We need battery cars to ballast wind generation! A map showing the most favorable lands for solar and wind power sites is a great step towards developing them, now to get Obama to live up to his word and commit to tax free and government backed development!

Carrie and I are thinking about how awesome it would be to buy some land to build our own electricity production facility (still have a lot of pieces to figure out to make that happen), but it's neat to see that there are so many potential locations where we could do something like this.
