The main power supply for several years to come must be clean coal, safe nuclear, and natural gas generation with a future hope of low cost solar, and other developing types of bulk generation as they become practical and economic to use. We have more cheap energy in coal than any other nation. We must lean how to use it in a satisfactory manner until better are developed.
