Will need plenty of flat MTR sites, ya'll get busy now.
The conservancy pointed out that wind, solar and renewable energy sources require far more land than nuclear energy and coal.
To produce 1 million megawatt-hours of electricity per year - enough to power 90,000 homes - one would need 30 square miles of wind turbines. Biofuels such as ethanol and biodiesel would affect 500 square miles to power those homes.
Generating that amount of power with coal would require four square miles. Natural gas would take eight. Nuclear power would require one square mile.
Other forms of energy, from geothermal to petroleum, would require from three square miles to 18 square miles to produce that amount of electricity.
