Electric demand has been dropping for the last five or so years in the US. Not increasing exponentially.

You could cover 1/4 of the roof area in the US with solar panels and have enough power to close all other power plants. Add panels over parking lots and you get exponential demand back.

Doesn't matter, it's a global market.
