This page could be organized better
I was thinking it could go as follows:
- start with the general idea that rooftops could meet most energy demands in low-to-medium-density cities
- that suburban houses would produce excess power which could (in many cases) meet inner-city energy demands
- that it could charge electric vehicles, mostly during peak sunlight
- that solar farms and wind power could fill in the difference when rooftop solar isn't enough
- link to a subpage where i put my calculations that confirm these facts
- that energy storage is essential for all this to work
- there could also be a subpage called '/howto' for instructions of installing solar on your rooftop
- i probably wouldn't be the one writing that page, since i don't have hands-on experience with that (yet)
