Even energy delivery systems need to be changed. If you look at the loss inherent in the current systems, you'd be appalled. Both problems are one of attempting to do everything over long distances, which is wasteful.

We're hanging on to our traditional models despite the fact that they were designed for intercity distribution, rather than international.
