The piece argues solar power could ease the energy crisis, citing vast solar input and long history. It notes a Meinel Arizona project and a NSF funded Minnesota Honeywell study aiming for large desert solar farms, with challenges in materials storage and grid distribution. Projections see solar electricity shaping the market by 1990 and supplying a third of needs by 2025. Solar air conditioners are expected by the late 1970s.
