Forget nuclear, try ‘concentrating solar power’

There is no need for nuclear power in the U.S. because there is a simple mature technology that can deliver huge amounts of clean energy without any of the headaches of nuclear power.

I refer to “concentrating solar power,” or CSP, the simple but effective technique of concentrating sunlight using mirrors to create heat, and then using the heat to raise steam and drive turbines and generators, just like a conventional power station.
