Hi,
Did you watch the video on what Germany is doing? Geographic distribution, and source distribution answers the "intermittent" issue.
A strong, flexible and robust grid is a key part of the answer -- if we get energy independence that employs lots of people, stops the need for fighting over oil, and drastically cuts pollution. I think it can happen, and I think others will agree with me.
Wind farms can be offshore of both coasts, and wave and tidal power systems are also on the coasts. Biomass can be used in many other places, and so can geothermal. Seems to me like all areas of the country/world have plenty to add to the mix!
