- jobs at the local power plant -- what currently prevents people from generating energy and selling it to their neighbours?
- geothermal is apparently very underutilized compared to other Pacific "Ring of Fire" jurisdictions
- need to improve energy efficiency too -- City Hall should be encouraging retrofitting and the switch to renewables -- more charging stations for EVs, tax incentives for retrofitting homes and making them more energy efficient
- kinetic energy? Generated from roads and sidewalks?
- how feasible are turbines in sewer pipes?
- solar panels that also generate power during rain by harnessing kinetic energy
