Yes - I'm sorry, I should have offered suggestions.
For me, as I posted earlier, the main question is the battery technology issue. Longevity, Weight, environmental cost of production / recycling etc.
But the thread now seems to have moved on more to the core of the issue - where & how the power originates. As we know energy can neither be created or destroyed - only change form with an efficiency well below 100% never above.
So another vote option could relate to the Fuel cell / battery argument. Though both have similar issues with the power origin, production of hydrogen may be more suited to the inherently intermittent wind / solar / wave electricity generation technology than for battery charging.
I have to say I am with Harry as regards to nuclear power, whilst there is a legacy from the spent fuel, there is more time to solve that problem than the immanent destruction caused by continuing Co2 emissions. Either of which leaves a legacy for our children.
