“replace imported oil and gas with homegrown energy.” if they had home grown energy available they would already be using it.
You can’t just plant a windmill just anywhere, and the same goes for hydro and solar. It has to be where the wind blows, the water flows and the sun shines. Kind of like the fifth element. China has coal to oil conversion, but they have been exploiting coal for so long they are running low. And as much as I like electric transportation, it can’t run a farm tractor, or 18 wheeler at the scale they need it.
