Some types of lithium mining require a lot of water and energy and have led to local pollution, such as in South America’s alpine lakes. The extent to which renewables should dominate Australia’s energy grids is a major issue in science and politics. Solar and wind are clearly now the cheapest form of electricity.

The primary energy fallacy is the assumption that all of the energy in all of the oil, gas and coal we burn today must be replaced. We don't need to replace it, we need to replace the unwasted energy services.

That need for balance is true of electric power grids, too. Second, conventional coal and nuclear plants are being retired for economic and policy reasons, removing stable sources from the grid. That would mean installing vast amounts of energy storage, such as. unprecedented and deadly winter freeze.

Even if electricity is produced from burning coal, the power plant is far away from population centers, transferred over power lines keeping any direct pollution away from the population. And the percentage of clean energy is growing every year as coal and gas plants are being replaced by renewable energy sources.

At present, PHEV technology alone is equipped to improve the current electric grid. The car can refuel during periods of low demand on the grid, and if equipped with a bi-directional charger, can actually replenish the grid with excess energy gleaned from a renewable resource.

The accelerating buildout of solar farms on Earth is already hitting speed bumps, including public pushback against the large tracts of land required and a ballooning backlog of requests for new transmission lines and grid connections. Space authorities in China aim to put a small test satellite in low Earth orbit (LEO) later this decade.
