  1. I do not know but I think this is a good question. I hope they do find a better wy to make fuel. You know, a way that is environmentally friendly. Although, I highly doubt this ever happening.


  2. Fusion. Don't have it yet though.

  3. You could use water-powered, nuclear, or wind-powered plants to generate electricity and distribute it.

  4. Wind turbines, hydroelectric, solar, and the really big one nuclear.

  5. One of the oldest, cheapest and widely used ways is hydroelectric, where falling water passes over a turbine and turns a generator. Every river in the US that has enough water flow to turn a generator is doing so, and it STILL is just a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of power we need. The problem is not finding ways to make power, it is finding ways to make LOTS of power. We can easily make small amounts of clean power, but the massive amount we need is just way too much for such systems alone.

  6. Hydroelectric power

    Nuclear fission powerplants

    Solar energy arrays

    Wind power (windmills)

    Geotheramal power (natural steam like geysers)

    Tidal  (similar to hydroelectric--if they can get the bugs out)

    Artificial photosynthesis (maybe)

    Renewable (using ethanol from plants toproduce electricity)

    Space-based solar power beamed to earth via microwave

    Fusion power (in theory)

  7. Rub together two politicians.   There's also the most reliable method of using Nuclear power generation.   As for solar - you may have noticed that there ain't no sunlight at night.
