Discussion of future demand, supply and  cost  for electricity.  
 Under the current administration, the trend is to encourage (indeed, to, whenever possible, force) the production and sale of electric vehicles.  While such actions will, of necessity, increase the demand for electricity, the same administration is actively opposing new coal-fired power plants, and seeking the decommissioning of older ones.
 We do have an abundance of coal in the United States.  Coal not used here will be exported to countries wherein the restriction on emissions of compounds such as sulfur dioxide are not as great.  Unless Mexico undertakes the construction of many coal-fired power plants, electricity generated outside of our borders will likely not increase our supply of available electricity.
 We also have an abundance of nuclear fuels.  The clamoring of the vocal few is preventing increased production from that option.
 Electricity produced by burning oil or natural gas is an option.  That is being opposed not so much by those against the construction of the generators as by those who parrot the talking points supplied by certain Arab oil interests, who punch away at the kidneys of American fossil fuel industry by screaming about "fracking" in as shrill a voice as their uninformed minds can contemplate.
 That leaves us with hydroelectric power, photovoltaic (solar) power, wind-driven turbine electrical generators, and hamsters running in a little wheel.
 If there are any reasonable propose projects for damming up another river, they have not come across my desk.  The last one, which finally got shot down, was Doolittle's Folly on the North Fork of the American River south of Auburn, California.  That one was designed to sit astride a visible fault line.
 Wind-driven generators are abundant in California, where they routinely slaughter raptors including the Bald Eagle, and do so with impunity.  Suggestions that these generators could be placed just offshore from Malibu was met with a typical NIMBY response.  Whether we can expand the number of wind = energy sites to significant levels is beside the point.  It is a very expensive source of electricity.  The notion that we should have the sunset occluded by clouds of such windmills so that people can drive their very costly electric vehicle around brings glee to the hearts of very few.
 Solar power certainly has its place.  Remote mountain top locations, with no electric transmission line nearby, can benefit from such installations.  For the time being, such applications contrast with the availability of electricity in urban setting that are a part of the Grid, where energy is relatively inexpensive.  That is not true in future, when the cost of electricity rises steeply.  Faced with increasing prices in the urban setting, many homeowners will benefit from installing such panels, pumping the direct current in to storage batteries, and using it internally on direct current electrical systems that are separate from the grid ... and not subject to outages.
 One way or another, the cost of electricity will rise, and will do so all the more quickly with the increased demand from electric vehicles.  Thus, those who do not drive an electric vehicle will be subsidizing those who do through increased cost for electricity to the home.
