Wind farms and battery vaults as well as solar arrays and battery vaults are slowly being perceive as only interim energy solutions. They have their roles but they eventually become relegated to more robust energy sources that demonstrate greater environmentally compatibles. The so-called Walkaway Safe, Molten Salt, Small Modular Reactors (SMR’s) that recycle non-weapons-grade abundant Thorium, can achieve on 100 acres what wind farms and solar farms require 100,000 acres to do. SMR’s for example are able to reliably run desalination plants to augment our water system networks, while simultaneously creating energy to pond, reservoir, and stream cleansing filtration arrays, and deliver excess power into our energy grid….. 24/7/365 ????

It might also be reasonable to consider any material energy system including SMR’s as an interim energy source. We are a long way from reaching understanding of the methods to extract energy from our cosmos.
