The US can reach 90% clean electricity by 2035 without increasing consumer bills
People are so focused on $$ when it comes to (green or other) energy. The real problem is not $$ but Joules. Building any type of a power plant costs energy itself, and unfortunately unlike capital, which is just a concept that you can argue with and win, there is absolutely no arguing with physics:

This problem is well visible once you count all of the world&#x27;s energy usage and just plot it. The rollout is anything but fast:
