We should really be considering how much space we give to solar and wind bc they take up a lot of space, as of now the most efficient solar panels can reach up to 40% which will cut down on how much space is needed but these solar panels won't hit the commercial market for another 5-10 years. In my opinion we should probably be more focused on geothermal (a recent discovery of a way to vaporize rock in these procedures has cut down on how much time is spent building these power plants) and nuclear ( it's a lot more safer nowadays just look at France it's grid is mostly nuclear energy and what demand for energy they can't meet they can produce through solar or wind or even better geothermal (as it doesn't require all that space) with supplemental coal burning as a last resort

Here in Texas the price of gasoline has begun to drop by, it seems, 10 cents/gallon every 3 days. Lowest I've seen yesterday was 4. 15.
I've seen this happen, at about this time, in Pueblo Colorado, 3 years ago. The price fell all the way to 1. 89 before rebounding to about 2. 89.
Just FYI, the price of gas has nothing to do with politics. No president is to be praised nor blamed for what happens to prices. Yeah, I know, presidents talk like they're in control, but they never are.

Why are we complaining that there isn't enough (fresh) water when we could be building Nuclear Plants that could supply the power to make more fresh water? Seems like that will get us far enough into the future to rely on renewables.
BUT I DON'T WANT A NUCLEAR PLANT NEAR ME! Well, you still live in an area w/o enough water so either deal with no water, nuclear plants, or move?

3: 54 again im big on the eco thing, but what about the cost on the environment to get all those minerals and special metals or whatever that go into these batteries ive heard it's really bad. Cobalt and lithium and loads of other of those precious minerals/metals etc. and mining for them is REALLY dirty and awful for the environment. Yet people never seem to factor that in.

With the first answer he only touched on the real problem with the situation at the end. They're price gouging and making record profits, and they have plenty of spots to get oil that they simply had no interest in using yet since they had no interest in making the price lower. We need more regulation on those insanely wealthy industries.

It's so interesting because for so many years I didn't know there was anything else except hydroelectricity, and nuclear power because of watching the Simpsons. but even then I when I was a kid, because it was in a cartoon. I think we pretty much only use hydroelectricity up here where I live, near Vancouver bc!

LOL, if this doesn't fit the narrative for one particular political ideology or another, they'll just claim it's fake news. What's the point of educating people anymore? They'll just ignore any facts they don't agree with and substitute a fantasy that suits them. It's a post-truth world.

USA #1 in oil production. However the government and/or the people don't own that natural resource. Texaco, Shell, Mobile ect own the oil and they sell it to the highest bidder worldwide. Corporate greed and unfettered capitalism is why gas prices are so high.

Wired can you please put these amazing experts in a room and have them ask questions to each other? It would be so amazing to hear the overlap of different subjects, and just see all these smart people in a room talk about their passions.

Why isn t Yellowstone discussed as an energy source for the United States? Correct me if I m wrong, but there s ample geothermal energy there because of volcanic activity that I m guessing could power much of the Northwest.
