When I first read the titile, I thought that the US is going to have to build A LOT to triple global production. Then it occured to me that the author means the US is pledging to make deals and agreements which enable other countries to build their own. Sometimes I think the US thinks too much of itself and that’s also very much part of American branding.

Where are my renewable bros at? Tell me this is bad.

    What exactly do you mean by “in the meantime”? What kind of timeline do you envisage for the large scale rollout of nuclear energy? Do you seriously think it’ll be possible to roll out nukes faster than building some more storage?

      The problem is “some more storage” can’t be done, the technology doesn’t exist

          FYI, the railroad thing is bullshit much like towers lifting cement blocks up and down. Dams are great, but they are extremely dependent on location and most of the earth is unsuitable for them.

          facepalm

          Battery technology is nowhere near good enough, or cheap enough, to support storing energy to meet the demands of entire populations.
