Should say
Electricity source. The words " energy" and "power" are bandied about with regard to Rebuildable Electricity as if this is the total of energy that we are using but electricity is just a small part. There is 5X very expensive work to be done to convert all of society's energy consumption to electric even after getting to 100% rebuildables for current electricity production. Just putting RE electricity instead of fossil fueled generation into the existing wires is actually the easiest part.
.
Germany primary energy share forecast from RE has been downgraded from their goal of 18% to 16.7% by 2020.

Such a long way to go before liquid fuel price goes 3X in 20 years. Do not get complacent. Everything must change.
