I wrote about it before, both solar photovoltaic and wind power are on exponential curves. There will be 2 TW (2,000 GW) of solar PV by 2026 according to analysts. Generating heat is critical to keep folks warm without burning fossil fuels. Even the IEA has stopped denying it. A factor 200 in less than 20 years.

A recent National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) study shows that it would take less than 1 percent of the land in the Lower 48—that’s an area comparable to or even smaller than the fossil fuel industry’s current footprint. NREL found that total US transmission capacity would have to increase by 1.3 times current levels by 2035.

The other is to improve the energy structure, replacing fossil fuel sources with alternatives. The Energy Foundation China predicts that Inner Mongolia will be one of the last provinces to reach peak carbon, sometime between 2026 and 2030. Neither of these will be easy for Inner Mongolia. An urgent need for change.
