Oh boy, Johnnycabs. I can't wait.

You know what I bet would work: some sort of cylindrical solar cell. Almost "solyndrical", if you will...

We could power Vegas for 3 hours a day! Solar doesn't work given the current state of technology. When there's a newspaper thin durable film that costs so little as to be disposable, let me know. At the moment, we subsidize the idea of solar power hoping to get to the point where it's viable. We aren't very close. Works well for calculators, though.

But when it does we can let the mighty Colorado run free again! Right?

I think not.

We should dam the Colorado with a giant solar cell. Win-Win!

Illinois can't come up with a road pavement that survives a single winter season, a solar road would be laughable.
In the meantime, while energy production is being improved, we could also continue to increase mandates on efficient energy use. We use more electricity for lighting than anything else. Unfortunately, LED light bulbs aren't quite a great replacement for incandescent/CFL bulbs yet, but the technology has been advancing fairly quickly.

We should put our transport system up in the stratosphere. Unlimited solar energy, shorter distances (up and over versus traveling along the surface of a big ol sphere), uninterrupted habitats down below, etc. The scientist's just need to nail that dam space elevator.
Trying to make an energy source like sun-power conform to our outdated and combustion based infrastructure is never going to be terribly effective.
I think electricity generation needs to get away from the whole grid system at some point.

Seriously though, we should be well on our way to harnessing energy from lightning, yet we're still chasing it around like a dog after a squirrel.

It takes 1.21 gigawatts of electricity to get a decent bolt of lightning going.

According to a reliable source, that level of power is unsafe for any kind of fun except time travel.
Just as Planned.
