• local grids based on renewables--tidal, wind, solar, geothermal (whatever makes most sense in that particular place)
  • ​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
