In the November 2009 issue of Scientific American (a leading
magazine in the field of many scientific endeavors) they present an
article by Mark Z Jacobson and Mark A Delucchi entitled "A Path to
Sustainable Energy by 2030. The authors present a well-rounded and researched article that presents detailed information. including costs, supporting the thesis that renewable energy can support 100% of the world's energy needs by 2030 - with energy to spare. They also predict that the total cost of the energy produced by renewable resources will be on a par with current costs per kilowatt hour. Given that governments do not have the billions needed to build replacement nuclear plants, this seems like a winning idea. Naturally our interest here is the supply of the solar installations that can supply the required 40% of this energy.
