I thought solar power was fairly decent. We can improve on these things, but I am aware that houses and cars can run off of their own solar units alone with energy to spare (roof of house covered in panels will give it more energy than it needs), so I don't see why this option is not taken. Some people are doing it already themselves, and certainly beats paying an electric bill all the time. I also, when I get a car, want an electric one so I can solar panel it to death as well. Don't forget solar panels work at night as well, obviously not as well but 12 hours give-or-take of charging up energy each night seems good to me.
