Have you heard of photo voltaic cells? There are quite expensive but your electric bill drops by hundreds of dollars per month.

I live totally off grid and have solar panels. My electric bill now.....doesn't exist but even before when I was totally on the grid my bill was never "hundreds of dollars"
So.....either you simply don't know a thing about the subject, or, you exaggerate way too much lol.

the world should be fueled by the sun and the sun alone.

not possible, to many places where the sun doesnt shine enough. I agree we need to completely wean ourselfs from fossil fuels and steadfastly refuse to even consider nuclear which is alot cleaner when all is working well but horendous when not.
I don't think we should try to limit ourselves to one type of system but instead incorporate solar, wind, bio fuels etc into a complete sysytem.
At present I have only solar with generator back up but thats simply because I refuse to make bills and am building and paying for my system as I go. I need probably a couple more panels and a new battery bank then I plan to add a wind generator.
