In an ideal world, we would get low cost power without significantly damaging the environment. While such an idea currently seems like a dream, new research findings suggest this could be a reality within the next two decades. Thanks to recent advances in solar and wind technologies, the U.S. has the potential to rely primarly on solar energy and other renewables in the future. The University of Delaware and Delaware Technical Community College recently concluded a study, the findings of which suggest that by 2030, the energy needed to power a large electrical grid could come 99.9% from solar and other renewables. Even better, renewables could provide the necessary power at prices that are comparable to current electricity expenses.
