The electricity infrastructure of the US is aging and based far too much on generating electricity with nonrenewable resources, according to Tombari (National Renewable Energy Laboratory, US Department of Energy), but the good news is that alternative technologies that are both more efficient and better for the environment are already here. In this work she puts forth an argument for why we should be concerned with the situation and provides a general audience with a tour of the technologies to which we should transition: energy efficiency, solar, wind, geothermal, biomass, and (eventually) hydrogen fuel cells.
