Abstract

More than ever we must take stock of the present and future global energy demands and of the available resources to satisfy them. It appears that a combination of many different systems of power generation, some based on fossil-fuels, others on renewable sun-derived sources and still others on nuclear fission and fusion will be required to meet mankind's diverse and growing needs.
