“The Clean Energy Act of 2009” spends $20 billion over the next 10 to 20 years to fund a series of loan guarantees; nuclear education and workforce training assistance; research into nuclear reactor lifetime-extension; and the development of solar power, biofuels, and alternative power technologies.

The four companies will formally submit their proposal to the Southern California Public Power Authority by early 2015 in response to the agency’s request for proposals to supply the Los Angeles area with renewable energy and electricity storage. 40 miles north of Cheyenne, which would generate 2,100 megawatts of electricity.

For the net transportation distance, several of the corn ethanol cases result in negative distances because the distance that could be traveled with the net fuel cycle inputs (petroleum via ICV and electricity, coal and natural gas via BEV) is greater than the distance that could be traveled with the gross ethanol output.

In addition, despite the rigorous development of renewables, carbon dioxide emissions are increasing, because the energy mix increasingly includes coal-fired power plants that emit large quantities of CO 2 to compensate for weather-related fluctuations in power generation from renewables and the closing of nuclear plants.

The proportion of grid electricity generated by renewables such as wind and solar energy fluctuates depending on how hard the wind is blowing or how strong the sun is shining. Until recently most power stations relied on coal and gas to power generators. The EV as a mobile electricity storage device.

Everybody knew then that renewables were unreliable: that wind power fully works less than one-third of the time, and that solar power is unavailable at night (of course) and less efficient on cloudy winter days. Presumably because the only forms of energy that ministers and civil servants respect are wind and solar.
