Renewables are simply fusion capture at a distance ;)

I like the joke that my house is fusion-powered; the reactor is of course located in a remote industrial area, for safety, and I rely on an array of roof-mounted receivers for long-range wireless power transfer. Conveniently enough, this reactor happens to be a deregulated and tragically undersubscribed public utility service...

Love your comment. Reminds me of something I'd read in a Douglas Adams book.

That's actually true of non-renewable energy as well.

technically coal power is solar, coal is just the fuel cells / batteries
