$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('eastbay', 'Y')es, Plantagenet, 'night' and 'weather' will definitely interfere with solar and wind power designs.....

And let's not forget that 'out of cheap uranium' might interfere with nuclear power designs as well.

Uranium from Seawater on a large Scale Update

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '
')Dr Masao Tamada, of the Japan Atomic Energy Agency, has developed a fabric made primarily of irradiated polyethylene that is able to soak up the minute amounts of uranium – around 3.3 parts per billion – in the seawater.

Dr Tamada hopes to secure funding to construct an underwater uranium farm covering nearly 400 square miles that would meet one-sixth of Japan's annual uranium requirements.

"Other countries are conducting similar research but none are as advanced as we are," he said. "We need to conduct more development research and be able to produce the adsorbent material on a large scale, but we could achieve this within five years."
