The Energy SuperGrid (2002): Prelude to the Green New Deal?

At the turn of the 20th century, in collaboration with Chauncey Starr,$^{\mathrm{1}}$ recognized founder of the nuclear power industry worldwide, the author proposed the concept of The Energy SuperGrid,$^{\mathrm{2}}$ a symbiosis of nuclear/hydrogen/superconductivity/solar/biomass technologies to supply carbon-free, non-intrusive green energy to support the lives of all inhabitants of our planet throughout the upcoming 21st century and beyond.$^{\mathrm{3}}$ We suggest the Energy SuperGrid concept contains the central elements of the ``Green New Deal'' as proposed as a central issue to be confronted in the upcoming 2020 US election process. We will focus on several physics issues we believe necessary to address for the successful implementation of the ``GND,'' especially those involving nuclear fission and high temperature superconductivity. \begin{enumerate} \item http://w2agz.com/Chauncey{\%}20Starr.htm . \item http://w2agz.com/PMG{\%}20SuperGrid{\%}20Home.htm . \item P.
